Glazes, Slips, and Paints

Abstract:: In the field of ceramics, the terms “glaze,” “slip,” and “paint” designate three different types of coating that are applied on the surface of unfired or once‐fired (biscuit‐fired) ceramic bodies for decorative or functional purposes. This entry provides an overview of the composition and different applications of glazes, slips, and paints in archaeological ceramics and outlines the primary scientific techniques used for analyzing them by reviewing examples of previous studies.
