Ceramic murals are a general term encompassing both earthenware and porcelain murals. The difference lies in the raw materials used in their construction. Furthermore, the former is fired at a lower temperature, resulting in poorer sintering, higher porosity, and a looser cross-section; while the latter is fired at a higher temperature, resulting in better sintering, lower porosity, and a harder, denser finish.
Ceramic murals use bricks, slabs, or similar materials as a base. They combine painting art with ceramic craftsmanship, undergoing a series of processes including enlargement, slab making, carving, painting, glazing, and firing. Through various glazing techniques and the art of skillful kiln firing, they produce lifelike and exquisitely crafted ceramic artworks. It is not a simple reproduction of the original artwork, but rather a re-creation of art.
Ceramic murals include overglaze, in-glaze, and underglaze painted murals; high, medium, and low temperature colored glaze murals; colored glaze relief, bas-relief, engraving, and openwork murals; mixed decorative murals; and modern ceramic art murals.
