THE DICTIONARY OF BLUE AND WHITE PRINTED POTTERY 1780-1880 – VOL. I by A.W. Coysh & R.K. Henrywood, Antique Collector’s Club, 1982/1995.
“This award-winning illustrated dictionary brings together as many facts as possible about blue and white printed pottery at the height of its popularity and production. The information has been gathered from a great number of sources and many of the photographs (30 color, 706 black-and-white) come from chosen pieces in blue and white collections. With such wide ranging research, the authors have produced a comprehensive guide, covering the firms, the craftsmen, the techniques, the wares, the patterns, the titles; where relevant they have added supplementary information. The 2,300+ entries, in fact, provide a remarkable background to the history of the ceramics industry and the social customs of the day, as well as the personalities and problems involved in the production process. Appendices cover makers’ initial marks and a list of source books used by makers of these wares.” This book has become the standard reference of blue and white printed pottery and is an indispensable reference text for the serious collector, dealer, historian, or curator of blue and white pottery.
