    No, sorry, I don't know much about Italian ceramics decorators. Rossi is quite a common name in Italy, but maybe someone else recognizes the name together with the style.

    I thought majolica was 3D.

    Nope, it's just the glaze name - tin glaze.

    Id call it faience, but the gilding and subject matter makes me think maybe 1960s, but I dunno for sure. Don’t see gilding, usually, on majolica.

    Agreed, this one is faience, strictly speaking.
