How do I identify majolica?

Majolica is recognised by its brightly coloured lead glazes applied over a pale ground, creating glossy green, brown, and purple surfaces with moulded relief details. These pieces often depict naturalistic plant and animal themes, such as bamboo, strawberries, and game animals.

Where were Staffordshire figures made?

Staffordshire figures were produced in the Potteries district of England, primarily Stoke-on-Trent, during the nineteenth century. Potters cast these earthenware figures in moulds and hand-painted them with enamel colours before a final glaze firing.

How should I clean glazed ceramics?

Dust these items gently with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid submerging pieces with old repairs or metal mounts in water. Harsh detergents can strip delicate enamel decorations and affect the stability of nineteenth-century glazes.
