Palissy Ware / Palissy Majolica

French
Palissy ware is a type of pottery that was first produced in the 16th century by French artist Bernard Palissy. The pottery is known for its intricate and realistic designs, which often feature a range of flora and fauna, including lizards, snakes, frogs, and fish. Palissy ware is typically made by building up layers of clay to create a three-dimensional effect, which is then painted and glazed to give a high-quality finish. The popularity of Palissy ware soon spread throughout Europe, and it became particularly popular in England during the 19th century, where it was used to decorate fireplaces and hearths. Today, Palissy ware is considered a highly collectible form of decorative art.
