A variety of slip-decorated ware produced in Italy in the fifteenth century was known as "Mezza Maiolica. " This was a coarse red ware covered with a thin coating of white slip on which the deco- rative designs were painted. It was then glazed with lead over which metallic lustres were frequently applied. Sometimes the outlines of the painted decorations were traced in black or in blue. " It was about the year 1300 that the method of covering the clay with a 'slip' or 'engobe' of white earth, o
...r the coarser earth of Verona, was first adopted. Slightly baked, it was glazed with 'marzacotto' (oxide of lead and glass), applied wet and again fired ; and this glaze was variously coloured yellow, green, black and blue, by iron, copper, manganese and cobalt. "* FRANCE.
It is known that slip-decorated pottery was made at various places in France, but very few pieces have been preserved. At Lezoux fragments of slip ware have been unearthed, together with one of the little slip cups or " pipettes " used in decorating.
