Medici porcelain was the first successful attempt in Europe to make imitations of Chinese porcelain, though it was soft-paste porcelain rather than the hard-paste made in Asia. The experimental manufactory housed in the Casino of San Marco in Florence existed between 1575 and 1587 under the patronage of Francesco I de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany. Surviving examples are extremely rare, and the great majority of the 60-70 examples are in museums.

  • La porcellana Medici fu il primo tentativo ad aver successo in Europa nell'imitazione della porcellana cinese bianca e blu, con una tecnica detta "a pasta tenera", affine a quella della maiolica. La manifattura sperimentale era ospitata nel Casino di San Marco a Firenze fra il 1575 ed il 1587, sotto il patrocinio di Francesco I de' Medici, Granduca di Toscana. Un segno dipinto della cupola del Brunelleschi e una lettera maiuscola F compaiono sulla parte inferiore di alcuni pezzi, altri recano le palle, le sfere che compaiono nello stemma dei Medici. Mai commercializzate, le porcellane Medici venivano a volte utilizzate come doni diplomatici: ad esempio, pezzi superstiti recano le insegne di Filippo II di Spagna. (it)

  • Medici porcelain was the first successful attempt in Europe to make imitations of Chinese porcelain, though it was soft-paste porcelain rather than the hard-paste made in Asia. The experimental manufactory housed in the Casino of San Marco in Florence existed between 1575 and 1587 under the patronage of Francesco I de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany. Surviving examples are extremely rare, and the great majority of the 60-70 examples are in museums. A painted mark of Brunelleschi's dome and a capital letter F appear on the underside of some pieces; others bear the Medici palle, the balls that are the Medici heraldic charge. Never a commercial venture, Medici porcelains were sometimes given as diplomatic gifts; for example, surviving pieces bear the arms of Philip II of Spain. (en)
