Book Description
|
| Colorful patterns of English transferware have
graced homes around the world for nearly 200 years. In the 20th century
major manufacturers like Crown Ducal, Enoch Wood, Royal Staffordshire,
Royal Crownford, Alfred Meakin, Spode, Johnson Brothers, and Mason’s
produced a large variety of patterns, styles and colors that are avidly
collected today. With nearly 600 beautiful color photos of 2000 pieces
illustrated, this book focuses on the most actively sought-after patterns,
such as Crown Ducal’s “Bristol,” “Calico,” “Castles,”
“Charlotte,” “English Chippendale,” “English Scenery,”
“Friendly Village,” “Historic America,” “Italian,” “Liberty
Blue,” “Old Britain Castles,” “Rose Chintz,” “Tonquin,”
“Tower,” Vista,” and more. Place settings and serving pieces as well
as rarer, more unusual pieces and those whose purpose was decorative are
intcluded. Detailed pricing tables for major patterns and commentary of
popular trends. |
