"earthenware" 的定义和意义

What is "earthenware"?

Earthenware is a type of ceramic pottery made from clay that is fired at relatively low temperatures. It is known for its rough texture, which allows it to absorb liquids more easily than other types of ceramics like stoneware or porcelain. Earthenware is commonly used to make dishes, bowls, vases, and other decorative items. It is often coated with a glaze to seal the surface and enhance its appearance, although unglazed earthenware is also used in some traditional pottery styles.
