Ceramic has been used as a material for pottery for millennia, and there is a deep tradition in its creation and use, both artistically and in the home. Ceramic urns do not rust or oxidize, and require minimal maintenance. They are lovely additions to a home and wonderful memorials to a loved one. Ceramics are made by combining earthenware ingredients, such as clay and powders, with water and molding them into desired forms. Often covered in a waterproof glaze, ceramic pottery is constructed in differing ways. Most often thrown on a potter’s wheel, it can also be hand molded into varied shapes and then fired in a kiln, first to harden the clay into pottery, then to set the glaze and bring out its vibrant colors. Glazes, only after firing, become the spectacular hues seen on each finished product.
