The disclosed ceramic arc tube of metal vapour discharge lamps has an arc discharge portion with electrodeholding end portions integrally formed at opposite ends thereof. The outside diameter of the arc discharge portion is larger than that of the electrode-holding end portions. The ceramic arc tube is made by placing a tubular green body in a fusiform cavity of a die inflating, the middle portion of the green body more than end portions thereof, and firing the thus shaped green body.
