What's up with you guys? The above listed inorganics are very likely to be found in a shop like that, as many of them can be used as pigments, for glazing, etching and other hobby uses. It gives people a hint of what can be found OTC, at least in some parts of the world.

I was unaware that those inorganics may be had from a pottery store.  So thank you, wolfram, for putting me in the know =)

Thanks wolfram, that was interesting,

Politoxico: In a way it was misinforming in the sense that many of the aforementioned chemicals do not exist, at least in the way they were spelled.
