Description
Pre-industrial glazed pottery painted with blue motifs that contrast with the white background of the piece. The decoration features lines of varying thicknesses—both vertical and horizontal—which cover the body, the mouth of the jar, and the foot. Originating in the 18th century, this type of pottery was known as “del Rayu” (“from El Rayu”), as most of the workshops were established in that part of the city.
