The Great Wall of China

I came across a blog last week that some readers of my blog may find interesting. The blog is called Vignette Design and frequently features rooms that incorporate majolica into their designs. One post in particular that caught my eye is called "The Great Wall of China." Take a look at some of the suggestions the author has shared for interesting ways to use ceramics in your home.

Not all of these designs are those of the blog author. Some are from other designers and commercial establishments but all of them show unusual ways to hang ceramic plates.

To read the whole article and to see other examples of classic design take a look at the Vignette Design Web site.

A blog such as this cannot exist without the assistance of others. It depends on the good will of dealers and collectors alike to advance the appreciation of majolica. Anyone whose images are posted here, copyrighted or not, who want their images removed may have them immediately removed at their request. In addition the opinions expressed in this blog are those of the author alone based on his own experience.
