| Maiolica (pronounced “my o lica”) is fired earthenware coated with an opaque tin oxide glaze. Then hand-painted in vivid colors and beautiful designs and fired twice for durability. Its name is derived from the tiny Isle of Majorca near Spain. But the twice fired earthenware can be traced back to Mesopotamia of the 9th century A.D. arriving in Italy around the 13th century. For generations, Italian Maiolica has captivated and delighted the world with it’s combination of lush color and intricate patterns on pottery for all kinds of uses. |
