Product Description

Product Description

This is a directory of 20th century British studio potters' marks. The entries are arranged alphabetically giving biographical data, information on the type of ceramics produced, location of pottery and potteries and dates as to when the mark has changed, along with examples of different marks used. There are also three useful indexes, based on the mark's image such as animals, initials and other figures to help the user.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb reference work for anyone interested in Pottery, 12 Mar 2001
By A Customer
After years of searching over hill and 'yon for relevant information about the identities of potters and their pottery, this book is now my constant work of reference and an excellent starting point for further enquiries. Not just including all the "usual suspects" (Leach(s), Hamada, Rie, Coper, et al) but the younger up and coming potters. The layout is intuitive and not only deals with the marks alphabetically but also divides them into symbol types (Creatures,Monograms, Signs) thus providing a more than comprehensive source. The compilers have done their best to provide as accurate information as possible for over 4750 Potters most of whom are still actually living! Anyone buying this book will find that the price is more than worth it and the covers will need reinforcing because of the extensive use it will get, a worthy edition to ANY reference library.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Book for Collectors or Dealers, 5 Sep 2007
No matter what item of pottery or porcelain you are trying to research, this should be one of two books you reach for first. My own copy has long since lost its shiny new look and is now a battered, well used and reliable source of information. Along with Encyclopaedia of British Pottery and Porcelain Marks by Geoffrey A. Godden, you really should not need anything else to find out all you need on backstamps and markings. Obviously other reference books come into their own on antiques and should also be purchased but for a first point of reference, these two books should be your first purchases and both will save you making very costly mistakes no matter how experienced you are.
