    There isn't a single French town famous for pottery, as numerous villages and cities in the country have an important place in the art form's history.

Other places in France that are well-known centers for pottery production include Vallauris, Soufflenheim, Saint-Quentin-la-Poterie, Moustiers, La Borne, Monflanquin and Aixe-sur-Vienne.

    The difference between black-figure and red-figure Greek pottery is that in black-figure pottery, figural and ornamental motifs were applied with a slip that turned black during firing and the background was color of the clay, whereas the decorative motifs on red-figure vases remained the color of the clay; the background, filled in with a slip, turned black. Red-figure is essentially the reverse of a black figure. On 1stDibs, shop vintage and antique Greek pottery.
