Earthenware

Earthenware is a type of clay and is easy to work with, but not as strong as other types of clay. It is also permeable unless you add a layer of glaze. And even with that layer of glaze, an earthenware pot is quite fragile: the edges break off easily. Earthenware is fired to a maximum of 1100°C.
