In the heyday of Thun majolica around 1880, vases, crockery, picture and coat of arms plates were produced - mainly for tourists.\r\n\r\nDuring the popular period of historicism, Thun ceramics were based on historical forms and were often decorated with oriental patterns, which were adapted to Swiss symbolism with edelweiss flowers, among other things.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n

History of Thun Majolica<\/h2>\r\nThun majolica dates from the period from around 1870 to around 1914<\/strong>, with this Swiss ceramic genre experiencing its heyday<\/strong> following a successful exhibition at the Paris World Exhibition in 1878<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nIts success began to wane again around 1900, although certain patterns, such as the \u2018Chrutmuster\u2019 (cabbage pattern) or the \u2018Chrutdecoration\u2019 (also known as the owl pattern) continued to live on as \u2018Alt-Thun\u2019 patterns even after the end of the \u2018Thun majolica\u2019 era. As a large proportion of Thun majolica was sold to tourists, the collapse in tourist numbers in Switzerland at the beginning of the First World War in 1914<\/strong> heralded the end of this type of ceramics. After the First World War<\/strong>, historicism came to an abrupt end<\/strong> in many places, which also sealed the stylistic fate of Thun majolica.\r\n\r\n
