Green-glazed wares are also quite common in Guatemala. They are currently
being manufactured in Totonicapan, Antigua, and probably Jalapa and Guatemala
City. Green-glazed ware goes back to the colonial period, and probably to
the sixteenth century at Totonicapan, but those earlier colonial green glazed
ware that I've seen are a very different shade from the green-glazed ware
being made today. Unlike the more famous Guatemalan Majolica, as far as I
know there has been no systematic study of the earlier Guatemalan plain
green-glazed ware.
