Terra Sigillata: Terra Sigillata was originally ware made from allegedly medicinal clay from Samos and Lemnos and stamped with a seal (sigillum) of authenticity. Later the term was applied to Arretine and Samian ware, and more recently to a grey Maltese pottery and to Silesian red ware. It was also the name given to a line of red ware produced by Duemler & Breiden around 1910. For more on beer stein ceramics go here: http://webhost.kendra.com/altekruge/pss/ceramics.htm
