-The first type of [[porcelain]] produced by '''Johann Friedrich Böttger''' was a refined and extremely hard red stoneware known in Germany as Böttgersteinzeug. It retained very crisp definition in its cast and on applied details. The Böttgersteinzeug could be polished to a gloss before firing. Models were derived from Baroque silver shapes and Chinese ceramic examples. Meissen's production of a hard paste white porcelain that could be glazed and painted soon followed, and wares were put on the market in 1713. Multicolour enamelled painting was introduced by '''Johann Gregorius Höroldt'' in 1723, with an increasingly broad palette of colors that marked the beginning of the classic phase of [[Meissen Porcelain]].
