For centuries lead was used in the glaze... maybe explains a lot about nobility because peasants were not eating off of fine China?I still have an orange Fiesta saucer that is radioactive. I used for Geiger counter training when I taught hazmat classes.
Fiestaware (ca. 1930s)
Plus the lead tankards for beer...
At the cabin in Austria I went traditional... the everyday is Corelle I brought over in a suitcase plus some glass from the casinos in Tahoe for those with a Tahoe history.
The good table ware comes from a local company that has continuously been in business since 1492 and it makes sense because the local brewery also dates from 1492.
