Style note — Neo-classical style looks back at and draws its design inspiration from the ancient Greece and Rome, and uses those elements in decoration. Most neo-classical items are defined by straight and clean lines, elegant repetitive floral patterns, floral garlands and gadrooning.
Facts of Lavish Care tip — avoid washing gilded and overglaze painted ceramics in a dishwasher. Tiny sand particles in water will eventually make the decoration look dull.
