I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'glazed pottery' is the definition.
'faience' can be an answer for 'pottery' (faience is a type of ceramic). I'm not sure about the 'glazed' bit.

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for faience that I've seen before include "porcelain" , "ceramic ware" , "A glazed earthenware" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
