This book was originally published in 1872. It presents a detailed and consise guide to pottery and porcelain. Much of the information will still be of use today and will appeal to those involved in the craft and those with an interest in the history of the subject. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original artwork and text.
