lead glaze

An amber lead glaze imparts a golden yellow to the slip-covered portions and a brownish amber to the exposed red paste.

The whole was then covered with a clear lead glaze which afforded a finish very much like modern earthenware.

It was cream ware which had received a heavy lead glaze richly and warmly coloured in brown.

This lead-glaze was soft, but it had a sort of metallic, iridescent lustre, which is one of its peculiarities and beauties.

Fragments of a flowerpot have a body similar to the foregoing, but are lined with slip under a lead glaze.
