This paper describes the more commonly known underglaze colors and gives typical formulae. The commercial colors on the market are recommended for general use. The various bodies suitable for this process, white or colored, are described, and the more generally used mediums with methods of preparation are given. The different methods of application and decorative treatment are discussed in connection with both transparent and opaque colors. Comparisons of the technique are made between underglaze painting and oil and water color painting. Glazing and firing treatment is also discussed. The paper concludes with some notes on historical types.
