The Medieval lead-glazed pottery from Nogara (north-east Italy): a multi-methodological study

► Multi-methodological study of 10th-11th centuries lead-glazed pottery from Nogara. ► Production technologies of both glaze and clay body were identified. ► Ceramic bodies were all produced with an illitic non-calcareous clay. ► Glazes were all produced by applying to the unfired ceramic body a lead compound. ► Comparisons with published data on lead glazes indicate general compositional analogy.
