Etymology
Whiteware is the same simple idea: white + ware, with ware meaning 'goods', as in hardware or tableware. At first it named plain white pottery before decoration, and later people also used the word for large household appliances (often white), like refrigerators and washing machines, so it can mean either white ceramics or big white home appliances.
