A tile stove from the Arthus’ Court, built in 1545— 1546, is the most valuable example of the Pomeranian ceramics. In 1943— 1944 free-standing part of the stove was dismantled. The tiles were transferred to a cloister in Kartuzy. They were uncovered in 1945. The tiles and non-disassembled part of the stove were preserved with the reconstruction of the stove in mind. In 1983 conservation work was initiated with the aim to reconstruct the stove. At the same time conservation, technological and documentation work was carried out. The analysis of the colouring of the stove was one of the stages of research work. Physical and chemical examinations covered polychromy of a stone plinth, clay listels constituting the framing of the tiles and an alabaster panel placed at its moulding. Detailed results of the studies made by the author are presented in this article. Results of the studies as well as information contained in literature on the colouring of the stove made a colour reconstruction of the object much easier. Moreover, the obtained research material may be employed in the analysis of polychromy of other stone and ceramic objects of that period.

The Great Stove in the Court of Arthur in Gdańsk, the most magnificent extant example of Renaissance ceramics in Europe, was built by Georg Stelzener in 1545-1546. The authors of this article report on the reconstruction of the object, whose reinstallment on its historical site, fifty years after wartime destruction, constitutes an important stage in the restitution of the historical interior.

The Renaissance stove in the Court of Arthur in Gdańsk is one of the few objects of this type which, apart from the traditional glazing, contain fragments embellished with organic paint. Orginally, the polychromy covered the stone socle of the stove, the clay frames surrounding the tiles and partially the ceramic tablet with the coat of arms of Gdańsk. The article discusses the history of research into the scheme of the stove as well as the outcome of laboratory examinations into the races of the extant original layer and numerous repainting. The table displays the composition of paint used for particular fragments of the stove. The colour boards interpret the outcome of the research and show the appearance of the original design and subsequent repainting. The results of the study have been confirmed after the reconstruction of the solid of the stove which comprises a consistent architectonic and painting composition. The polychromy of the corner tiles and frieze emphasises its architecture. Elements of the crown and base echo the multihued tiles. The gilt fragments, endow this enormous construction with a certain feeling of lightness.

This study contains a short history of the 1 1-meter Renaissance tile stove, one of the largest in Europe, which dates back from 1545. Its author was Georg Stelzener, the famous stove fitter. The author discusses the type of damage suffered by particular groups of tiles from the Great Stove, as well as the physical properties and level of the salt content o f the ceramic basis of the tiles. She also describes the causes of damage within particular material layers of the tiles i.e. the postherd, angoba and glazing. The article presents the premises and goal of conservation together with its programme. The description of the course o f the work is supplemented by photographic documentation (slides) registering characteristic damage, the technology of assorted conservation undertakings, as well as the final effects of the conducted operations.
