A method of producing an inorganic molded item comprising a matrix composed of an inorganic ceramic and an inorganic filler dispersed within the matrix is provided. The method includes heating a silicone-based molded object comprising a matrix composed of a solid silicone and an inorganic filler dispersed within the matrix, under a non-oxidizing atmosphere at a temperature within a range from 400 to 1,500°C. This method suffers almost no volumetric shrinkage, and yields a molded item with the intended shape and dimensions, and a favorable level of strength.
