[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4261794, member: 2844"]I think you are referring to these sentences: "Palissy was the mother of what is now called [B]Majolica[/B]." "Majolica which is the evolution of Palissy ware" "Majolica, a name birthed from Palissy" Yes, that would be French chauvinism on the part of the author.:playful: Of course majolica was already made in 15th century Italy, and was made in other parts of Europe before Palissy made his wondrous 'fishy pieces' in the mid-late 16th century.;)[/QUOTE]
