Questions About Palissy Majolica
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Palissy majolica is a combination of terms. Famed French potter Bernard Palissy’s ceramics were known as rusticware to him, but his novel polychrome lead-glazed look with naturalistic scenes were so highly regarded that the style became known as Palissyware. Centuries later, in the Palissy style, Minton Co. created their Palissy ware, which later became known as majolica. Find a collection of expertly vetted Palissy art from some of the world’s top reputable boutiques on 1stDibs.
