The vast array of ceramics manufactured by the venerable English
manufactory Wedgwood, appear in over 500 stunning color photos. Early
green-glazed earthenwares, Queen’s Ware, black basalt, jasper ware,
dry-bodied stonewares, majolica, bone china, and lustre ware forms range
from teapots and tableware to statuary and Art Deco sculptures.
The fascinating, detailed history of the development and dissemination
of Wedgwood products includes a useful timeline for quick reference,
bibliography, index, and values in the captions. This work should be
required reading for every Anglophile and ceramics aficionado!
