| Summary |
"Bendigo Pottery, established in 1878, is one of Australia's best known potteries and one of the few to produce majolica wares that were so popular in Western Europe during the late 19th century. The nature of majolica means that no two pieces are the same due to the intermingling of colours and the individual hand painting of glazes thus whilst the pattern may be repeated, individual colouration of each piece is unique. This exhibition coincides with the 150th anniversary of the pottery and includes pieces from public and private collections, many of which have not been shown before. It traces the range of majolica wares produced by Bendigo Pottery for which the Pottery regularly won international medals and certificates."--Publisher's website |
