History

Which problem notably worsened with improved kiln construction techniques enhancing Delftware production?

A)Falsified signatures increase value
B)Clay impurity thermal expansion cracking
C)Lead leaching glaze reduction cost
D)Enamel fading required faster drying

💡 Explanation

Improved kilns allowed hotter, more consistent firing, increasing lead leaching from the glaze via increased reaction rate; therefore, toxicity risks rose because higher temperatures accelerated lead dissolution, rather than temperature stress-related cracking.
