Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Tin-glazed ware. Lead-glazed wares tended to die out after tin glaze reached England via the Netherlands about 1550. At first, it was called gallyware, but, with the rise of the Dutch manufacturing centre at Delft, the ware came to be called delft. Its popularity was due to the fact that it could be painted in bright colours. 3, record 1, English, - English%20Delftware

Dès le XVIIIe siècle, l'influence des Pays-Bas s'imposa aux fabriques allemandes; Hambourg, Hanau, Francfort imitèrent Delft fidèlement et le nom même de delftware, devenu un terme générique pour désigner la porcelaine anglaise (Bristol, Liverpool), dit bien son origine.

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La porcelaine tendre naturelle, ou porcelaine phosphatique, est une création anglaise du XVIIIe s., où la fritte est remplacée par une matière première naturelle; le phosphate de calcium, sous forme d'os calcinés et pulvérisés, comprend également l'emploi d'une roche spécifiquement anglaise, le "cornish stone", proche de la pegmatite. Le façonnage s'opère par calibrage et coulage. Plus plastique que la porcelaine à fritte, elle est cuite, comme elle, en biscuit, à une température légèrement supérieure (1 250 à 1 320°C env.). 2, record 2, French, - porcelaine%20phosphatique
