Synopsis
Miller's Collecting Pottery & Porcelain: The Facts At Your Fingertips explains the difference between the major groups of ceramics such as hard paste and soft paste porcelain, earthenware and stoneware, and covers the major European and American factories, as well as East Asian, Islamic and Russian ceramics. The book embraces traditional collecting areas such as Sevres, Worcester and Delft along with the new collectables such as Poole, Wade and Doulton figures.
The authoritative text provides historical background with tips on what to look for, what factors affect value, the pitfalls to avoid and what sort of price you should pay. There is also useful advice on buying from auctions, dealers, fairs and even flea markets; how to conserve and display a collection; and how to insure it. Also included are listings of major auction houses, antiques centers and public collections, together with a glossary of terms.
