Literal meaning
duan clay (a clay name with several written forms)
Definition#
Duanni is a Yixing clay name often associated with buff or yellow fired bodies. Accounts use several spellings, including 段泥, 緞泥 and 團泥. Yingge Ceramics Museum describes tuanni as a blend; that description should not be treated as a universal geological definition of every material marketed under these names.
