     炻(せっ)器(き)はヨーロッパで数(かず)多(おお)くつくられていましたが、ジャスパーウエアは従(じゅう)来(らい)の炻(せっ)器(き)に比(くら)べても粒(りゅう)子(し)が非(ひ)常(じょう)に細(こま)かく、素(そ)地(じ)が格(かく)段(だん)になめらかでした。

     While stoneware was made in great numbers in Europe, compared to traditional stoneware jasperware had much finer particles and was much smoother before glazing.
