Summary

[edit]
Description
English: In early Ottoman buildings one can find tiles in a style that was later overtaken by the Iznik ware. When different coloured glazes are applied to a ceramic surface, the glazes have a tendency to run together during firing process. In the cuerda seca technique, the water-soluble glazes are separated on the surface by thin lines of a greasy substance to prevent them running out of their delineated areas. A dark pigment such as manganese carbonate is usually mixed with the grease to produce a dark line around each coloured area.
