Puebla Blue and White is the most common type of the 18th century Puebla majolicas. It generally has a cream-colored background, with painted design motifs of florals, dots and lines in one or two shades of blue. Majolica is a wheel-thrown pottery, made with a soft earthenware paste covered with a tin glaze, and are generally shaped in the form of deep brimmed plates or bowls. Most of the majolica found in St. Augustine was made in Mexico between the late 16th century and the 18th century.
