Description

The Pujol i Bausis ceramics factory produced many pieces for buildings in Catalonia and abroad, some commissioned by renowned architects, being at its peak during Modernism. The creations and recipes for chalk colors are collected in the company’s preserved documentation, where you can see that some of the colors bear the name of the architect who had requested them.
