About Villages Fitoeran-Zavatra Manitra

Villages dia andiana fitoeran-javatra manitra vita amin'ny tanimanga azo esorina, natao ho an'ny latabatra. Azo alamina amin'ny fomba samihafa ireo fitoerana, ka ny mpampiasa mihitsy no mamaritra ny fomba fampiasana azy ireo. Rehefa apetraka miaraka eo amin'ny lovia, ireo fitoerana dia mamorona endrika tanàna kely izay mampiova ny fandaminan-tsakafo ho toy ny tontolo iray. Vita ao Jingdezhen amin'ny porselaina mafana be io andiana io, izay tsy misy loto, azo antoka ary mety ho ampiasaina ao amin'ny fanafanan'aina (microwave). Ny tanjona dia ny hitondra hafanam-po sy fahafinaretana amin'ny fisakafoanana isan'andro.
