How Super Vitrified Vintage Print Crockery Works

Super vitrified vintage print crockery isn't just about good looks—it's serious kitchen science at work! The super vitrification process involves firing clay at extremely high temperatures (typically above 1200°C) to create nearly non-porous ceramics. This makes the vintage pattern plates incredibly dense and durable, with the decorative prints sealed beneath a protective glaze layer. The result? Professional vintage style dinnerware that resists chips, cracks, and stains while maintaining vibrant patterns through thousands of wash cycles. Even with daily commercial dishwasher use, these pieces keep their vintage charm without fading—brilliant for busy hospitality environments!
