The invention is related to a glass-ceramic article decorated with a ceramic baking finish. A SiO2 layer, about 20-200 nm thick, is placed between the decoration and the glass-ceramic material. The SiO2 layer can additionally contain, to match the refractive index to the refractive index of the glass-ceramic, up to 66.5 wt % of oxides which change the refractive index, in particular TiO2, ZrO2, SnO2, MgO or Al2O3. In the process to produce the decorated glass ceramic article, the SiO2 layer is preferably produced according to the known sol-gel process. Preferably, an SiO2 gel layer, optionally precondensed by a brief thermal treatment, is produced on the still-vitreous article. The decoration is applied to this gel layer and afterward the vitreous article is subjected to ceramization. The SiO2-gel layer is converted into an SiO2 layer, and the ceramic color of the decoration is baked-in. The SiO2 layer permits, above all, the production of substantially "halo"-free decorations with sharp contours.
