About MeThe brightly coloured design on this porcelain pear is produced by painting latex patches over a base glaze and then spraying a different coloured glaze over the pot before picking off the latex. This pear is very shiny due to the application of a very thin third glaze.
The brightly coloured glazes are based on 18th century Whieldon Ware.
