Robba Gialla
A general term for vessels with lead glaze ranging from honey-colored to yellowish-brown, seen in Southern Italian folk pottery. Mainly produced from the 19th century to the first half of the 20th century, widely across Southern Italy, centered in Puglia.
Often finished with lead glaze on red clay body in a single firing; the shading, flow, and kiln variations from firing become the landscape itself. Uses vary from large amphorae (capasone) to jars, bowls, and bottles.
Decoration is often minimal; the glaze color itself is the "keynote" of this pottery. One of the most universal everyday ceramics that supported the foundation of Southern Italian life.
