There is ... quite a difference between a glazed brick and an enameled brick. [True] enamel is fused into the clay without an intermediate coating, and the enamel is opaque in itself, whereas a glaze is produced by first covering the clay with a "slip" and then with a second coat of transparent glaze resembling glass.

OBS

Not to be confused with "glazed brick."
