Paul Atterbury, historical advisor to the Royal Doulton Group in England, selected and edited this collection of articles from the magazine, Antiques. This volume consists of six sections that provide the reader with basic information on development of ceramic styles, forms, and methods of manufacture, including trade in historical blue Staffordshire wares and renewed interest in Victorian porcelains. (from "Publisher's Note"). This volume is divided into six sections: English Pottery, 1650-1800; English 18th Century Porcelains, Wedgwood, Ceramic Figures and Portraits, Blue Printed Wares, and Victorian and Later Pottery and Porcelain. The articles in these sections were selected to give an overall picture of ceramic manufacture in England and of the nature and status of collecting. (Taken from Introduction by Paul Atterbury).

From the publisher: "The articles in this survey have been arranged in six sections. The first, ENGLISH POTTERY 1650-1800, shows the contribution made by both simple and sophisticated earthen wares in the history of English ceramics. The second, ENGLISH 18TH CENTURY PORCELAINS puts English porcelain making in its historical context. The third is devoted to WEDGWOOD. The fourth, CERAMIC FIGURES AND PORTRAITS reflects the traditional role of the potter as an image maker. The fifth BLUE PRINTED WARES shows the importance of an artistically humble, but economically vital basic product of the 19th century. The sixth section is VICTORIAN AND LATER POTTERY AND PORCELAIN." Includes WEDGWOOD: WHAT'S IN A MARK by Geoffrey A. Godden: "Another mark which is so close to the true Wedgwood mark that it can be mistaken for it by the casual observer is WIEGWOOD, again just sufficiently dissimilar to avoid legal action. It is occasionally found on Wedgwood-type creamwares and also on black basalt wares. A superb covered tureen with this mark is shown.". First Edition (so stated). Hard Cover.
