Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 The main application of non-constructional ceramics is in the home as tableware, kitchenware and vases. Glazed or unglazed household stoneware articles such as pickle jars, WATKAS, bowls, butter-milk jugs, CHUTNEY sets, etc, are widely used in the country and such articles are covered under this standard.
2 Stoneware containers are relatively thick and have simple shapes and coloured glossy or matt glazes. As the stoneware containers are articles of utility as well as of beauty the Committee did not specify dimensions, but recommended certain capacities for the containers, to rationalize the manufacture and to help the consumer in selecting a suitable container.
3 This standard was first published in 1964. In this revision, the requirement of release of Lead and Cadmium (Toxic Elements) has been added.
