Characterization of Tableware from Fábrica de Loiça de Sacavém—Linking Analytic...

Fábrica de Loiça de Sacavém (ca. 1858–1994) was among the first to produce white earthenware in Portugal, becoming one of the country’s leading ceramic manufacturers during the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Research on white earthenware has accompanied the growing interest in post-industrial archaeology but is still poorly explored compared to more ancient ceramic productions. This study focused on the cer...

Tijomel was considered one of the most modern ceramic manufacturers in the Iberian Peninsula in the mid-20th century. Located at Caxarias (Ourém, Portugal), this manufacturer produced diverse ceramic-based architectural materials, from common clay bricks to sophisticated modernist azulejos. Recently members of the family of the former Tijomel Manufacture owners retrieved a collection of 33 raw materials, mostly...

Red glass in Kunckel’s Ars Vitraria Experimentalis: The importance of temperature

The role of the melting conditions and furnaces used to the obtained final colors has always been a question raised when investigating formulations and recipes of historical glasses. The focus of the present work is the reproduction of three recipes of red enamel glass of the manuscript by Neri, L'arte vetraria (1612) following the translation and comments by Kunckel's in Ars Vitraria Experimentalis (1679). The...

Sand and Pebbles: The Study of Portuguese Raw Materials for Provenance Archaeol...

Portuguese archaeological excavations dated to the 17th century onwards are extremely rich in glass artefacts, with this being a reality from the north to the south of the territory. Contrasting with this reality, no glass production locations from this period have been discovered or excavated so far, which makes the provenance attribution a challenging endeavour. One specific archaeological location, the Monas...

ABSTRACT: Chinese blue-and-white porcelain is found in archaeological excavations worldwide, being significant evidence of global trade routes and cultural exchange. Synchrotron radiation-based techniques have been applied for studying cobalt speciation to establish a correlation between the cobalt and iron oxidation state and local coordination environment in the rich blue shades of Chinese blue-and-white porc...
