- Circa - A Latin term meaning 'about', often used in the antique trade to give an approximate date for the piece, usually considered to be five years on either side of the circa year. Thus, circa 1900 means the piece was made about 1900, probably between 1895 and 1905. The expression is sometimes abbreviated to c.1900.
- "fat Lava" Glaze - The term "fat lava" glaze was coined by collectors to describe the style of glaze that was popularized in the mid-20th century, particularly in West Germany, which often features a thick layer of glaze that bubbles and flows during firing, creating a unique texture. The glaze often features bold, bright colors and a highly tactile surface and is typically applied to a rough or textured surface, which enhances its visual and tactile appeal.
