black earth (pigment)
Definición
A class of pigments where a variety of both inorganic and organic compounds may be present. Historically, comparatively little is known about which materials were used as black pigments, and in treatises on painting technique, the terms black earth, black chalk and black stone were used interchangeably, whether discussing black pigments or drawing materials. In current technical literature, black earth is generally assumed to be a black shale or chalk, but other bituminous materials and minerals have been identified.

black gloss
Definición
Shiny black coating that is well-known on Athenian pottery. It is created by painting with a black slip mixture before a three-stage firing process. Oxygen is removed from the kiln in the first stage and the lack of oxygen and high temperature causes the clay to turn black while the slip mixture melts into black gloss. Oxygen is then re-introduced, causing the un-coated surface to turn red-orange. The black gloss is unaffected at this stage, and the coated area remains black.

In the process, a refined slip of clay, iron oxide, wood ash, and rain water was used to paint decorations on the object. Details were incised into the black figures or applied in purple or white pigment. It developed in Corinth ca. 720 BCE; the technique was later replaced by the more sophisticated red-figure vase painting.

black-gloss ware
Definición
Fine ware that was widely produced in the Mediterranean region from the 4th to the 1st centuries BCE. It is distinguished by being wholly or in part covered with a black slip or gloss, which is not actually a glaze (although it is sometimes called "black-glaze ware"). This ware developed from later Attic production, but by the Hellenistic period (about 330-30 BCE), it had become the most popular fine ware throughout the Mediterranean. It was the first pottery to be exported in quantity from southern Italy by the 3rd century BCE.
