To preserve the glaze and prevent staining through micro-crazing, antique majolica should be hand-washed gently in lukewarm water with mild soap when necessary, avoiding dishwashers, harsh chemicals, and prolonged immersion.

These sculptural ceramic pieces can be displayed on open shelving, sideboards, or as centrepieces on dining tables, adding an element of historical whimsy, texture, and rich colour to eclectic or traditional spaces.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit weight characteristic of dense earthenware, fine crazing in the glaze under magnification, hand-painted detailing with vibrant oxide colours, and sometimes impressed factory or registration marks on the base.

Majolica pieces are traditionally crafted from earthenware clay, hand-painted with metallic oxide pigments over an opaque white tin or lead glaze, and then fired at high temperatures to achieve a glossy finish.

Victorian majolica is a type of colourful, lead-glazed earthenware that gained immense popularity during the mid-to-late 19th century, known for its vibrant colours and naturalistic motifs.
