“Majolica (pronounced muh-JOL-i-kuh) is a type of porous earthenware pottery that features a brightly colored, opaque glaze, often with rich decorations or three-dimensional, molded designs”
“The technique actually originated in the Middle East and was brought to Italy via the Spanish island of Majorca (then spelled Majolica). Because Italian traders imported this Spanish ware through Majorca, the Italians adopted the word maiolica to describe it”
The planter is hand finished in a mixture of glazed and fired colours with similarities in pattern and design to English majolica.The item has a highly polished finish.
