Bisque means it has been fired once, removing chemically bound water and also allowing the clay body to vitrify. Glaze fire means it has been fired a second time with glaze on the object. Some industrial methods can fire glazeware in one fire, however this is uncommon to the hobby world
No. These are simply alternate terms for the same thing.
It's the first firing of any clay piece.
Greenware is usually fired at cone 06 for bisque firing. The glaze firing depends on the maturation temperature of the clay and the glaze.
The worst thing I have personally seen happen is that the color is very muted and sometimes bubbly. I would bisque fire it and see what it looks like. I haven't heard of any explosions or serious cracking issues associated with this. If the color is bad after bisque firing, I would try to do a glaze firing. Hopefully the glaze will fully cover the underglaze.
Yes, you can paint (glaze) ceramics after being bisque fired. You can also bisque fire it twice...
Bisque is the general term for any unglazed clay that has been fired. In high fire pottery a piece is generally fired without glaze at a lower temperature and then glazed and fired at a higher temperature.
When pottery is being fired it is placed inside a kiln. Most potters do two firings, one for bisqueware and a glaze firing. Bisqueware is pottery that has been fired to a temperature hot enough to not only evaporate any water in the clay, but also evaporate water at the molecular level thus changing the chemical structure of the clay molecules and creating the hard material you know as ceramic. After bisque firing, pottery is glazed and placed in another kiln. There are many types of glaze firings. Some are done with gas (reduction firing) and some firings are done with electric (oxidation firing). There are also unconventional methods of firing such as Raku, pit firing, and soda firing.

The celadon green is a glaze on white porcelain--so a bisque firing, then a glaze firing for a total of 2 if other decorations are added.

. Both: Bisque fire, glaze, Glost fire

http://stoneware.seeleys.com/html/what_is_stoneware.htmlDifferences in an undecorated piece of stoneware and earthenware: Stoneware Impervious to water (water tight) Chip resistant Color: Buff or terra cotta Feel: textured Look: like pottery Looks great undecorated or decorated. Can withstand high/low temp. Oven safe Suited for household use. Painting bisque: Wipe off mistakes. Glazes flow: bisque is not porous Firing: Leave the bottom of the piece dry and place on shelf Earthenware (ceramic ware) Not impervious to water (cannot hold water) Chips easily Color: white Feel: chalky Look: rough white Can only use when decorated. Cannot withstand high/low temp. Not oven safe Suited for decorative use Painting bisque: Cannot correct mistakesGlazes adheres to bisque: bisque is porous Paint or glaze the bottom of the piece and stilt on shelf.
Rain is liquid that falls from a clouds. Glaze ice is frozen or partially frozen raindrops, in the form of ice pellets.
Glaze it..... during the firing the glaze should act as a glue sealing it together. If that doesn't work simply crazy glue it.
You usually fire the object twice. The first time, after the raw clay piece has completely dried. This is called the bisque fire. It is a lower temperature firing that makes the clay harder, through a chemical change that comes with the heat. Sometimes, with low fire earthenware, the bisques is actaully fired higher than the glaze firing. The piece is then strong enough to easily handle for the application of the glaze, which is a suspension, in water, of glass making chemicals , such as silica and other color making chemicals . The piece is then fired once more to a higher temperature to melt the glass making chemicals. The piece undergoes another chemical change at the high temperature, which renders the pot more vitreous, making it very strong. There are types of pottery that is created by once firing even when it has glaze. It is difficult to put the glaze of the unfired bone dry pot but some traditions such as Korean onggi jars are done this way. Chun pottery was once fired as well. Some salt and soda and wood fired glazed work is done this way as well. This is easier becuase the glaze is an atmospheric glaze rather than applied as a liquid. When once firing the pot must be very slowly and carefully heated for the first 1000 degrees F or so so the pot does not explode. Much historic pottery such as ancient Greek looks to lay people as though it is glazed but it was slip decorated and once fired. Sometimes pottery is fired many times more than this. Ming vases were done this way with each successive glaze being a lower temperature one and the final glaze being the very low temperature silver or gold metallic luster glazes. It is often used to get layered glaze effects and effects where glazes fire at very different temperatures.
yes , u can put many laries of glazes over each other but u must know the firing temprature for each one and its chemical analysis To determine the outcome
