Ceramic (stoneware, faience, porcelain, etc.) had good heat retention and was durable. Depending on the region, there was a wide range from simple handmade items to decorative porcelain for the upper classes. It was used for water, wine, beer, milk, etc. It was less prone to breakage and decorative. It was heavy. Fine cracks (crazing) could appear on the surface. Wooden items (wooden mugs, cups, bowls, etc.) were common, especially in rural and mountainous areas, and were rustic and warm, with some areas with high woodworking skills producing artistic pieces. They were used for daily water and milk, and as simple tableware. They were less prone to breakage and easy to carry. A characteristic is that if liquid is kept in them for a long time, it can seep in and cause deterioration. Metal (tin, copper, silver, pewter, etc.) had been used since the Middle Ages, and was still present in some regions in the 19th century. Used for beer, wine, water. Also used for military and travel, durable and not easily broken. There could be a metallic odor or reactions with acid. Glass (blown glass, pressed glass) became popular mainly in urban areas and wealthy households. It was transparent and clean, used for water, liqueurs, medicines, and decoration, and was clean, transparent, and allowed the contents to be seen. It was fragile and production costs were higher. Various types of containers – glass, ceramic, wood, and metal – were used concurrently for drinking water, depending on the region, social class, and historical background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Based on research by AI.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"イエローガレージ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42778238320724,"sku":"R070165","price":10000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/3856\/4948\/files\/0_834ea5b4-828d-4ad0-9bda-5826c065d08f.jpg?v=1766290733","url":"https:\/\/adhocstore.com\/en\/products\/europe-antique-blown-glass-cup-candle-trace-65mm-adhoc-selection","provider":"ADHOCストアー","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
