Nanomaterials for Consolidation and Protection of Egyptian Faience Form Matteria, Egypt
Journal of Nano Research, 2019Egyptian faience is one of the most important archaeological materials that contain a lot of historical and technical information about ancient Egyptian civilization. Unfortunately, the Egyptian faience objects subject to many deterioration factors, especially humidity.

Derivation of ancient Egyptian faience core and glaze materials
Antiquity, 1997An essential ingredient of the lovely blues in ancient Egyptian materials — faience, glazes, frits — is copper. How did the knowledge of that copper use arise? There is a telling congruence with Egyptian techniques in drilling stone artefacts, and the characteristics of the powder drilled out as waste.

Probing beneath the surface: a study of Ancient Egyptian faience
2022Ancient Egyptian faience is a material of many mysteries. There is limited knowledge on the receipes and manufacturing processes used to craft it. This unfortunately has led to a lack of information about faience, unsatisfactory conservation methods, and confusion about the provenance of artefacts.

Quantitative X-ray fluorescence analysis of an Egyptian faience pendant and comparison with PIXE
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2009The X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technique is a common choice in the archaeometric field for in situ investigations with portable instruments. This work shows that XRF portable systems can be used for quantitative analyses using appropriate software, obtaining a similar accuracy to that provided with other techniques such as particle-induced X-ray emission

Egyptian Faience Inlay Techniques: a process for obtaining detail and clarity by refiring
MRS Proceedings, 2002ABSTRACTThe faience of the New Kingdom period is frequently decorated with an expanded palette of red, black, and yellow. This polychrome decoration was often accomplished by inlaying one color of paste into another. The aesthetic success of these inlay techniques reveals a fundamental understanding of the materials' characteristics before, during, and

Archaeometry, 1973
ABSTRACTSThe glazes and bodies of fifteen Persian ceramic objects datable to c. A.D. 1300 were analysed by X‐ray fluorescent and optical emission spectroscopyin order to test the veracity of parts of Abū'l‐Qāsim's treatise on pottery manufacture. The results showed that the bodies of these pots were closely akin to so‐called Egyptian faience, and it is

Journal of the American Institute for Conservation, 2000
AbstractThe manufacturing technique of pharaonic faience has been studied extensively in the past. However, stylistic and technological changes took place with Egyptian faience produced in the Ptolemaic Period (330 B.C.–30 B.C.). Very few faience samples of this period have been analyzed, and their methods of manufacture are not well known.
