CREATORS

* Saint-Porchaire (French)  - artist
A French factory certainly active before 1542 and the probable source of a highly individual type of lead-glazed earthenware. These pieces are decorative objects of finely grained off-white paste with intricate inlaid patterns of strapwork made by impressing the clay with metal punches and filling the cavities with clays of contrasting colors, red, yellow and brown; they are covered with a transparent lead glaze.
