state. They are then dipped in what is iechn,c,Ily
termed THE glaze, which kind of plass reduced
TO an lnpaipable POWDER and ground up with water
until the compound assumes he consistency of th,ck
cream. After this the specimen is again burned. un-

rounds tne BODY with coating of glass. Upon this
coating the figures or 9th " designs afc panied and
these again are burned in. The difficulty in produc-
ing perfect specimens Of painting on china seems
t. arise chiefly from the disposition of the

certain degrees of heat. For instance il often hap
