- In this kiln unloading a lot of sgraffito, and a question about Majolica which is mentioned in The Great Pottery Throw Down.
I would love to hear from you, what is Majolica? Am I totally wrong?
Thanks for any clarification!
The white clay is a stoneware clay body from Laguna; nr 65. The black clay is number 391, also by Laguna.
The Scandanavian Blue, Soft Aqua and Pearl White are from Spectrum.
The clear glaze I use over my colored slips is MS29 clear bright by Laguna.

I love your sgraffito work!
Thank you!
I agree with you on the majolica technique
I was equally confused with the "majolica" designation on TGPTD. I've always been taught that majolica was colors painted over the white tin glaze and was low fired to keep the vibrance.
Another great kiln load, and good to see you again Monique!
It turned out I was wrong! 🤪 I'll talk about it in my next video.

The great British pottery majolica was based on 19th century British majolica ware style i think it was Minton who created and nicked the name which was carved bright coloured and lead glazes the type of majolica you're thinking about was the original Italian tin ware type.
Thanks so much for your explanation! Now I know why I was confused. The same name for 2 different decoration techniques. I will look this up, always something one can learn! Thanks again, very much appreciated.
I was also confused. I like thos explanation that there are 2 different majolica techniques. 👍
I thought majolica is painting the pot with white glaze and paint on top of that with underglazes. When fired the white glaze will give the underglaze the clear coating and protect it.
Me too Heidi, looks like I was wrong. More on that in the next video.
Love the sea turtles so beautiful
Thanks Sharon!
Have a wonderful day @@nukuaceramicsbonaire
I agree with your confusion. Few decades ago I produce majolica and most definitely a tin glaze as the base then glazed to paint the picture so to speak, the colour of the glazes on application looked nothing like the vibrant colours that came out of the kiln. I also love the throw down by the way, but yes I agree
Thanks Susy, but there seem to bee more 'majolica's in the world! I'll refer to it in my next video. Thanks for chiming in!
hoi Monique,,,,weer prachtige dingen gemaakt om te laten zien...en ja, ik had hetzelfde bij het zien van de aflevering...`huh....zo doe je dat toch niet`...maar ja,ondertussen de comments gelezen en er zijn dus meerdere definities van majolica....was wel leuk om te zien , maar dat vind ik van alle afleveringen...lol
Ik was ook verbaasd maar, weer wat geleerd deze week! meer hierover in mijn volgende video.
Thank you so much for sharing your amazing pots with us. I looked up majolica pottery and it was all very brightly colored pottery that wasn’t carved!! That’s very odd to me as well because I thought it was what you said. I’m not sure what majolica is now. lol.
There seem to bee more 'majolica's in the world! I'll refer to it in my next video. Thanks for chiming in as always!
Hello Monique! could you please let us know what season/episode of the GPTD you were explaining about? TIA and LOVE YOU!!!
Thanks! Last season, last episode, from last Sunday.
Monique, I was wondering where the name of your business comes from or what it means?
Hi Audry, that's a story to long for me to type, If I don't forget I'll explain in a future video okay?
@@nukuaceramicsbonaire Oh my goodness! For sure. No pressure AT ALL! I was just curious. Bye for now, Monique!
I am just as confused as you! I am Italian and majolica is definitely not what they did! 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Thanks Marta, but it looks like I was wrong. More on that in the next video.
Majolica technique that I have watched is applying an underglaze or slip color, then a wax layer which you draw a design thru, then putting underglaze into the lines and wiping back. This leaves a design in colored underglaze in the wax lines. I have not gotten to watch episode six yet. Your pieces are beautiful
Hi Barbara, thanks for chiming in! But I think you mean the Mishima technique?
