This chapter provides insights into Chinese ceramic technologies of both bodies and glazes as well as provenance by using isotopes applied to a number of case studies. The use of Sr isotopes to investigate Chinese high-fired Celadon wares and blueand-white Jingdezhen porcelain (Jiangxi province) has revealed a clear distinction associated with the fluxes used in the glazes: plant ash in celadons and limestone in Jingdezhen glazes, something that is not clear from major element analysis. Furthermore, the technique is able to suggest by implication the nature of the silica source used in the glazes-normally weathered granitic rocks or metamorphic rocks (porcelain stone) which also contains Sr. This leads to an isotopic mixing line of the 2 Sr-rich components and is proof that 2 Sr-rich components were mixed in the manufacture of limestone glaze. This is not the case for plant ash glazes. Eventually, the technique may be used in provenance studies. Like Sr isotope analysis, lead isotope analysis relies on there being a lack of or a minimal change in the isotope ratios when the raw materials are heated. Lead isotope analysis links the use of lead in glazes to the original metal ore and if a kiln uses a distinctive lead source in its glazes, it can provide a provenance for the pottery. This has been very successful in distinguishing Chinese Tang sancai wares made in the Huangye, Huangbao, Liquanfang and Qionglai kilns.

Crafts should be developed as part of the tourism sector, because when this pandemic ends, the tourism sector will need to rise up and be ready to answer the challenge. The tourism industry should be supported by souvenir crafts, but the products lack the design variance that is reflected in the local cultural character. This research aimed to develop designs based on local culture. The methods included studying local culture, formulating local culture concepts as Malang souvenir ceramic creation ideas, doing creative shape exploration and technique exploration, creating art and product prototypes, testing and validating the product diversification in terms of concept and prototype, and lastly, improving the product and analyzing the creative results. Keywords: Malang souvenir ceramics, design diversification

“…En los platos-tapadera también se forman fracturas continuas a lo largo del cuerpo y en la última parte del perfil, entre el cuerpo y el borde. Estas fracturas desarrollan secciones en 'U' o en 'V' invertida muy marcadas e indican una construcción discontinua de tiempo, una modificación de la estructura interna y recortar o eliminar materia de los colombinos (Thér 2020). Por ello, en aquellos casos donde se observan modificaciones en la altura de los colombinos y en el grosor de las paredes, no es descartable que se haya realizado un raspado para regularizar las paredes (fig.…”

En este trabajo se presentan los resultados sobre los procesos de modelado identificados en un conjunto de vasos cinerarios y platos-tapadera procedentes de la necrópolis de incineración de El Pi de la Lliura (Girona, España, c. 1017-739 cal ANE). El reconocimiento de las trazas de fabricación ha permitido documentar dos secuencias de modelado de cerámicas y analizar varias cuestiones vinculadas con la relación entre los procesos de modelado y el tipo de recipientes (urnas, platos-tapadera y una pátera), la extensión temporal de las técnicas de modelado identificadas y si había o no una relación entre estas ‘formas de hacer’ y la edad de los individuos incinerados. Estos resultados permiten ampliar el conocimiento sobre las prácticas técnicas de la comunidad o comunidades que utilizaron esta necrópolis para enterrar a sus muertos y sobre el papel de los productos cerámicos en el ámbito las prácticas funerarias desarrolladas por esas comunidades.
