DIAMANT Seltmann Weiden has launched a new porcelain line with unique features for the hotel/restaurant sector ... The Seltmann Group has developed a new type of porcelain with a unique combination of purity, fineness and lustrous pearlescent finish. After years of research, the Group’s porcelain experts have managed to combine the delicate look of cream-coloured soft porcelain with the advantages of hard-paste porcelain. The result is a cream porcelain that not only looks warm and soft, but is also velvety to the touch. The porcelain body, which is fired at around 1400°C, the temperature used to make hard porcelain, is therefore much stronger and harder, giving it a relatively high edge impact resistance. The much greater hardness of the glaze ensures a long-lasting scratchproof finish. This benefit is clear to see in everyday use. These special characteristics make it possible to create exceptionally thin forms with the highly sought-after translucence. Each item in this new range of porcelain has been given an additional title that reflects its unique appearance: ‘Diamant’ (diamond).
