Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to the style of pottery developed in the 18th century based on Chinese enamelware and potteryware styles. The style, once a royal monopoly, expanded and spread throughout the region after the establishment of Bangkok as the new dynasty capital in 1782. Wares in this style usually express the famille verte or famille rose palette. The style features multicolored glazes, enamel work that tends to encompass the entire piece in bright and repetitive patterns, Thai angel figures, and royal lions. Tablewares and household utensils usually exhibited this style.
