[...] faïences très légères dont la pâte beige clair, d'un grain serré, est recouverte d'un émail stannifère [...] Les contours du décor sont parfois soulignés par un trait brun, le trek, et les couleurs polychromes de grand feu comprennent un beau rouge (bol arménien). Formes et décors obéissent à deux tendances stylistiques. D'une part, des faïenciers [...] incités par la vogue et la rareté des porcelaines chinoises, en imitèrent les formes (vases, drageoirs, boîtes à thé, etc.) et les décors, en bleu et blanc et en polychromie de grand feu.
