No other work on pottery and porcelain contains within one single volume so much information as this entirely new and re-set edition of Litchfield's standard work. The vast additions to ceramic knowledge since the last addition, by British, American and European scholars, and the results of much scientific research, have all been taken into account. The book has been virtually re-written, the number of colour plates increased from eight to thirty-two, and with the same wealth of photographs and line drawings. The new Litchfield is, in fact, the encyclopaedia of ceramics from the earliest known times to the first quarter of the nineteenth century. It deals from A to Z with every known factory, and it provides the collector, connoisseur and student with full and up-to-date information resulting from the exact studies of the leading authorities. Its value as a work of reference is enhanced by the fullest and most recent data on fakes and forgeries, a comprehensive glossary of technical terms, and a greatly expanded bibliography. The chapters include `Ancient Pottery', `Mediaeval and Renaissance', `Porcelain, its introduction into Europe and general adoption', `Hints and Cautions to Collectors', `Some Counterfeit and Misleading Marks', and `A Short account of the Different Ceramic Factories'. upwards of 2000 Marks and Monograms of all the important Makers. Size: 4to.
