earthenware

Earthenware is a type of pottery made from clay that is fired at relatively low temperatures. It is characterized by its porous nature, meaning it can absorb liquids unless glazed. Earthenware is often used for everyday items like dishes, pots, and decorative objects. Commonly found in various colors, it can be decorated with glazes or painted designs. While it is less durable than stoneware or porcelain, earthenware's charm lies in its rustic look and versatility, making it popular for both functional use and artistic expression.
