Agateware techniques have been used in several ceramic traditions and became particularly well known in European ceramics during the 18th century. Similar patterned-clay methods also appear in other ceramic traditions and are conceptually related to techniques such as Nerikomi.
After shaping, agateware pieces are typically finished with a transparent glaze that highlights the natural marbled patterns of the clay.
