A metallic article (10) comprises a bond coating (14,16) on the metallic article (10) and a ceramic thermal barrier coating (18) on the bond coating (14,16). The ceramic thermal barrier (18) coating comprises zirconia stabilized with yttria, calcia, magnesia or india, and erbia to reduce the thermal conductivity of the ceramic thermal barrier coating (18). The ceramic thermal barrier coating (18) is at least 100 microns thick. The erbium atom has an atomic mass greater than the average atomic mass of the zirconium, the yttrium, calcium, magnesium or indium and the oxygen atoms to reduce phonon thermal conductivity of the ceramic thermal barrier coating (18). The ceramic thermal barrier coating (18) comprises 4 to 20 wt % of yttria, 5 to 25 wt % of erbia and the balance is zirconia plus incidental impurities. The erbia absorbs energy in the 0.3 microns to 5 microns waveband to reduce photon thermal conductivity. Other suitable additions besides erbia are dysprosia, europia, gadolinia, praseodymia, urania or ytterbia.
