If properly prepared, they can serve their owners for many years, while maintaining their unchanged form.. However, in order to be sure that the vessel will fulfill its intended role, it is necessary to perform each of the subsequent stages of the production process.. The most important step is to choose the material. The porcelain mass from which stoneware products are made can boast of very high quality. Once the mass is ready for production, a specific form should be chosen – for example a cup or a pot – in which the material remains for about 2-3 hours until it rises.. Once the mold is filled, the drying process begins.. The drying and hardening of the porcelain mass usually takes about a day, and in the case of smaller items this process is faster.. Larger dishes, on the other hand, may need more time to dry completely. The completely hardened product undergoes the first cleaning, which aims to remove any imperfections or impurities from the surface of the product.. Then the first firing takes place, making the vessel resistant – it usually takes place at a temperature of around 900 degrees Celsius. After the surface has cooled down (the cooling time depends on the size of the product) Any dust or deposits are removed so that glazing and re-firing can begin (at a temperature of around 1200 degrees Celsius).Glazing and second firing are the last processes to which the stoneware product is subjected.. However, its cooling down again must be done slowly and gradually.. Too sudden contact of a heated vessel with cold air could quickly damage its surface.. Advantages and applications of stonewareStoneware is one of the most versatile and multi-purpose ceramic materials.. Its amazing properties make it possible to create almost any dish from it.. What is more, the products of this type offered by the Kadax brand are handcrafted, which makes each copy of a given series unique.. An extremely important feature of stoneware products is their pro-ecological nature.. The porcelain mass from which Kadax products are made is a fully natural material.. Each vessel made of them is completely safe in contact with food, not transmitting potentially unfavorable ingredients or odors. All these aspects make stoneware cups, plates, bowls or pots very popular.. In addition to their considerable durability, they are also distinguished by their unique appearance – most of the products are rustic in style and have subdued colours, yet remain universal enough to blend in well with almost any interior design.Key features of stoneware productsStoneware is a product that is very practical and functional.. Handicrafts are usually covered with a thick layer of glaze, which not only keeps them in good visual condition (protecting the surface against scratches, abrasion or fading), but also further enhances the durability of a product that is strong in its nature. Another aspect that deserves special attention is the resistance of stoneware materials to high temperatures. Dishes made of them can be easily placed in ovens or microwaves to heat the contents inside.. The preferred food temperature can be maintained for a relatively long time because stoneware is characterized by very good heat insulation.. The food products or previously prepared dishes you decide to put in them will not in any way affect the ease of transferring them later – the coatings of the stoneware options are non-stick.
