Use of Digital Jet Printing in the Reproduction and Recovery of Architectural Ceramic Heritage

摘要

In this study a method has been developed for the reproduction of antique ceramics of great historical and architectural value, using characterisation techniques to study the pieces, digitised image processing, and digital jet printers. The method has been applied to the reproduction of earthenware tiles from the Baron de Vallvert palace kitchen (Valencia), dating from the 18th century, which had been stolen and of which only photographic records remained.
