The term “maiolica” refers to the style of the piece which originated in Italy.

Basically it is fine earthenware with colored decoration on an opaque white tin glaze – as you see, the piece is true to its roots.

The style dates back to the Renaissance but continues to be produced in Italy and elsewhere (where it has become known as “Majolica”).
