Glazed Pottery (Barro Vidriado)

The glazed finish resembles enamel or glass. once the piece is shaped, it undergoes a two-step process. The first firing bakes and hardens the product, and the second cooks and seals the glaze, creating a greater variety of styles and colors than simply those which came from the clay. Towns like Patamban and its green stoneware and delicate fine dishes, Capula and its pointelle and sometimes ornate designs of its pots, casseroles, and dishes, Tzintzuntzan and its pots and serving pieces, Santa Fe de la Laguna and its traditional black incense burners and candelabra decorated with tiny drops, San Jose de Gracia and its famous pineapples, Zinap??uaro and its dip-glazed pieces, and Santo Tom?? and Hu??cito -- all are dedicated to glazed pottery.
