What was the key trade-off in using earthenware compared to porcelain or stoneware?
Earthenware is more porous and less vitrified but easier to produce due to lower firing temperatures.
Earthenware is fired at higher temperatures than porcelain, making it stronger but less decorative.
Earthenware does not absorb water and is naturally waterproof without glazing.

What is the primary reason earthenware pottery is porous and can absorb liquids?
It is made from a special type of clay that naturally absorbs water.
It is fired at temperatures below 1,200 °C, which prevents vitrification.
It is always unglazed, which causes it to absorb liquids.
