Castleton China is real china for it Is made of china clay and minerals. It is the strongest and most durable of all clay ware. It is fired at such high Yemperatures that it becomes completely non-porous and beautifully translucent. When tapped it has a clear resonance. When chipped it is non-absorbent.

These are the factors that mark the vast difference between real china and earthenware. For earthenware is fired at a much lower temperature than china and has neither the translucency nor resdnance of fine china. When chipped it absorbs moisture readily. =
