Porcelain is generally more expensive than standard ceramic due to the higher grade of raw materials required, such as refined kaolin clay, and the much higher kiln firing temperatures needed to achieve its dense, vitrified state. The complex manufacturing process, stricter quality control standards, and superior durability of porcelain drive up production costs. Standard ceramic uses more common, lower-temperature clays, making it cheaper and more widely accessible for mass-market pottery and basic household dishware.
