Zürich ware

Zürich ware is a type of Swiss porcelain, that is made in Zürich. The factory in which it is produced was founded in 1763 by Salomon Gessner.

The factory produces a mixture of faience (tin-glazed earthenware) and faience fine (lead-glazed earthenware) alongside the more traditional Zürich ware.
