Is the bowl Sana Gloss? Is that what vitreous china means?

Dear Sir or Madam, I do not see anywhere in the description of it having a Sana gloss. Vitreous china is ceramic material that has been glazed with enamel. Thank you

It has a white, high gloss glaze finish, so apparently it was painted white and then glazed. Don't know if you can paint over it or not (although my sister-in-law does china painting on glazed china.)

Completely different this is a glaze. I wouldn't recommend I wasn't impressed with the blacklight. I haven't used jet seal but, I have used liquid glass, it is incredible. Been using it for years as a sealant

Yes it's really a Zhanchi with the corner gaps you're asking about. I'm assuming they just used some crap stock cube image for the item picture. Rest assured, the seller I purchased from sells legit Dayan cubes. Hope this helps!

I woulds say it is white with swirls that almost look like silk material. Very pretty!

Mine just say JAPAN OPTICS. They do not seem to be multi-coated. I use the polarized filter to protect the lens, and it does a fine job of that at a low price. I would recommend a more expensive single filter for more serious work.

I believe that it is white decorating sugar, I used it to make panda cupcakes, so the faces were "sparkly" white- it's coarse, but so is all decorating sugar

The blue swirl is inside the glass...been thru the dishwasher many times and still looks great. I have no idea about the lead free...but I would assume so! These glasses are awesome!

It's Japanese and you can google it. People from Japan, South Korea, China, uploads videos on youtube and you can ask them in the comments section :)

I can only go by what the ad said. Which is 'all crystal'. I don't know how to tell the difference. Looks good though.

No, these little cups are oriental which mean Japanese or Chinese, they are held in the palm of the hand as you sip. The English version would be the demitasse.

The country of origin is China. But that isn't so important, the quality of the silicone is. We use 100% pure food-grade silicone, 100% BPA-free and do not use any fillers. Cheaper brands often use plastic fillers. Fillers can compromise the quality and durability of silicone. You can test this yourself by doing the "pinch and twist" test. Just twist a bit of the silicone, if it turns whitish, it's got plastic fillers. Pure silicone will retain its color. Hope this helps. -Suzanne

If you look on Noritake's website, they say that china (which they say is the same as porcelain) is a combination of clay, kaolin, feldspar, and quartz. They say that "bone china" adds bone ash to the mix. This Crestwood Platinum line is described as "white porcelain" on their website, whereas some other collections are described as "bone china" so I'm reasonably certain this line does not contain bone. If you want more info, I'd suggest emailing the company.

It has a shiny class surface, with a black or white tint. I have the black model, it's very good looking and modern looking. Quality glass and color.

SG means SaniGloss. SaniGloss is a smoother finish than the standard finish. I've used both the standard as well as SaniGloss, and it seems to me as if less "stuff" sticks to the SaniGloss finish.

The high quality glass is from Japan, but the cap and silicon sleeve are from China.

It is definitely NOT plastic. It is vitreous glass. It is beautiful, hard and resists high temperatures, but it is not unbreakable. It tends to shatter rather than break if it is dropped. In 30 years I've broken only 2 or 3 pieces.
