| Hand painting with colours on white glaze produces visual effects of startling vividness in the Majolique series. Tile painters have recreated the splendid tile schemes of 15th Century Orvieto, Italy. The early influence of Valencia potters on Italian ceramics is evident in the use of blue decoration or sometimes purple on white. Orange, yellow and green are included in the palette and technique known under three names: Maiolica (Majolique), Faience and Delft. |
