Glazing is the only real difference between glazed and unglazed tiles. After the ceramic tiles are fired, a thin coat of liquefied glass is applied over the top surface. The glass is what makes glazed tiles so highly moisture and stain resistant and what gives them their colour.Unglazed ceramic tiles, while not as stain resistant as glazed tiles, are not as slippery.fter the ceramic tiles are fired, a thin coat of liquefied glass is applied over the top surface.

Geographically, a Viking Age may be assigned not only to Scandinavian lands (modern Denmark, Norway and Sweden), but also to territories under North Germanic dominance, mainly the Danelaw, which replaced the powerful English kingdom of Northumbria. Canute the Great, king of England and Denmark, Norway, and of some of Sweden, was possibly the greatest Viking king. 2  A son of Sweyn Forkbeard, and grandson of Harold Bluetooth, he was a member of the dynasty that was key to the unification and Christianisation of Denmark.
