		Pottery is a ceramic material, where the clay mixed with other minerals is formed into vessels, generally with utilitarian purposes in mind.
		Aesthetic and artistic considerations have often been part of the formation of the pottery vessels, however modern mass production techniques have replaced the traditional role of pottery with mechanized reproduction, which has in turn caused the potter to be more focused on the aesthetic than the utilitarian in industrialized nations.
		Pottery is an ancient technology, and is one of the key technologies in the formation of civilization.

	Salt Glaze (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		By introducing salt into the kiln at the height of the firing, just after vitrification has taken place, a hard glaze that is actually a type of glass, a sodium-alumina-silicate, is formed on the stoneware surface as the sodium in the salt and the silicates in the clay chemically combine.
		The blue, purple, or sometimes green under glaze found on salt glazed steins is called "smalt." It is comprised of silica, potash and a coloring agent such as cobalt oxide, or manganese dioxide mixed with enough water to flow properly.
		A salt glaze surface requires a chemical reaction between the silicates in the clay and the sodium oxide to form a glaze.

		Salt-glazed stoneware is a type of stoneware produced by adding salt to a kiln to create a glass-like coating on the pottery.
		At approximately 1660 °F / 780 °C, the salt (sodium chloride) vaporizes and bonds with the clay body.
		(For more on techniques and science, see Salt glaze pottery.) A common technique employed on salt-glazed stoneware is the use of cobalt decoration, where a dark gray solution of clay, water and the expensive mineral cobalt oxide is painted onto the unfired vessels.
