whitewares

Glazed ceramic goods

Whitewares are ceramic products made from light-colored clays that fire white or near-white—porcelain, stoneware, earthenware, and similar materials used for dishes, tiles, and sanitary fixtures like toilets and sinks.

The term distinguishes these from darker ceramics like terra cotta or red brick.
