 | | Majolica, spelled Maiolica in Italian, the tin-oxide-glazed, painted earthenware pottery of Italy, reached a summit of artistic quality during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. | | | The dispersal of majolica craftsmen, particularly from Faenza, exerted a profound influence on European pottery styles and, in particular, of the Netherlands, where, in the early 17th century, the tin-glaze technique was taken up and used to imitate Chinese porcelain. | | | In art, an arabesque is a decorative pattern composed of rhythmic, curvilinear designs. |

| | Collecting Majolica pottery |
| | However, Victorian majolica was actually not a new art. | | | In 1851, a new type of Victorian pottery known as majolica was introduced at London’s Crystal Palace Exhibition – an international exposition of the day’s “works of industry.” Potter Herbert Minton had designed the pottery and his chemist, Leon Arnoux, had developed the process that resulted in majolica’s vibrant, lustrous glaze. | | | At the end of the century, majolica picked up Art Nouveau’s love of sinuous vines and the calla lily. |

| | Deruta and Gubbio are the two main modern centers of the art of Majolica pottery in Italy. | | | Noble patrons established and sometimes even worked in studios where Majolica artists produced fine plates, bowls, ewers, and platters that were meant for ostentatious display (or private enjoyment, if it was "erotica") rather than for any practical use. | | | The defining characteristic of this kind of pottery is the white background onto which all the other colors are painted. |
