Product Description
If you are a collector of porcelain and pottery or you deal in it as a profession this book is a must for you. It took George Perrott and his wife more than seven years to complete this book. It is compiled in date order and consists in marks from the factories of Europe, USA, Japan and China. It covers approximately 10,000 marks and references. It commences with the Ming dynasty of 1368 and takes the reader through the 15th century 'Maiolica' period of the Italian Renaissance, the German and French 'Faience' of the 16th century, the early 17th century Dutch 'Delft' wares and continues on to the great factories of Europe including Meissen, Sevres, and the English factories of Wedgwood, Minton, Spode, Doulton etc. The major part of the book concentrates on older marks but a significant effort has been made to include marks from factories and potters that are currently in business and are still producing their wares today. More than 500 Companies throughout Europe, USA and the Far East contributed to this project. Collectors Clubs and Museums were also a great source of information. This publication is in fact one of the most original marks books to come onto the market in recent times. It must be the first of its kind that catalogs the marks, factories and potters in date order giving the added perception of their time in history.
Reader Reviews
Contains marks based on their period, somewhat hard to follow unless you know a lot about when your piece was made. I found Marks4Antiques easier to use. However, the Index is well organized, which helps find most marks by description.
