Majolica is a type of ware developed by the Minton factory around 1850 in imitation of Renaissance ceramics from France and Italy, Majolica being an Anglicized version of the Italian word, Maiolica used to describe these early pieces. It was produced by using colored glazes to accentuate heavily moulded pieces, and was soon copied by many manufacturers in England, europe, and North america.
These are made in Italy. Wondering what they may be worth, and any other interesting pieces about them. They're beautiful!
