La technique du lustre à reflets métalliques (qui remontent à l’antiquité dans les pays orientales) s’est répandue très vite et apparaît à la fin du dix-huitième siècle sur les faïences fines du Staffordshire ( Angleterre).
1851 : After a few exhibitions in London, this ceramic with metallic reflections was a great success, reaching its peak in 1875.
The term "Jersey earthenware" appeared in France to designate this British earthenware with shiny decors. It is misleading because the Channel Island has never produced earthenware!
Beautiful pieces to garnish your table and a refined gift for collectors of fine table art.
