Ceramics Porcelains and Majolicas
The pottery is an ancient and widespread process in areas very distant from each other. We have hints of ceramic production since prehistoric times and is supposed that his invention has taken place twice in the history of mankind: between the Saharan populations and in Japan.
From these places of origin, has spread around the world and is divided into several types: - Compact paste ceramics such as stoneware and porcelain that have a very low porosity and good qualities are very durable and waterproof;
- Porous ceramic paste, which are earthenware, majolica and terracotta. They have a soft paste and porous and more easily scratched.
