Medium groups works by the physical material or format used to make them. Wikipedia states, "Objects in the decorative arts or applied arts that have been designed for aesthetic appeal, as well as any functional purpose, such as a piece of jewellery, many ceramics and much folk art," count among the many forms a work can take. Browsing by medium lets a visitor compare works made with similar materials.
