Mackenzie-Childs' majolica ceramics begin with the most natural and individual of materials: clay from the earth. From pots to plates, teapots to tureens, the clay is molded by hand, pressed, or slip cast. Although time consuming, these methods ensure that every piece is alive with individuality.

Stains and glazes are painted on by hand, not by machine. You may notice variations in the density and depth of the color. This evidence of the artisan's hand is highly valued by collectors:No two pieces are identical. Set a table with MacKenzie-Childs plates and their variations are sure to please and delight your guests.
