I don't do majolica, but I attended a workshop a few years ago. The presenter
stressed avoiding handling the bisque ware ...to the point of wearing cotton
gloves. Apparently, the least bit of oil from the hands can cause pinholes.
Even so, she had to accept a small percentage of loss to pinholes as inevitable.
Since the your friends bowls have the pinholes on the outside, it makes some
sense that they may be due to handling...
