Midwest Book Review
Joan Van Patten's Collector's Encyclopedia Of Nippon Porcelain is the benchmark price guide for Nippon Porcelain. There are chapters on Egyptian Designs, Dutch Influence, Airplanes and aerial flight decorations, Nippon Coralene, Cobalt Blue, Manning Bowman and Nippon, Nippon Urns, the care and cleaning of Nippon, Nippon Reproductions and more! Profusely illustrated throughout, a glossary and bibliography are also included as is a very useful index.

Product Description
A continuation of Joan Van Pattens first six books, Nippon Porcelain, Seventh Series, contains absolutely no repeats from her other books. There are over 900 exciting colour photos. The presentation of each piece includes size, mark, and current collector value, and a useful index, glossary, and bibliography are attached.
Reader Reviews
This review is from: Collector's Encyclopedia of Nippon Porcelain w/ Price Guide : Updated, Series 1 (of 5 Series Set) (Hardcover)
This book is well documented, thorough and the pictures are excellent. In addition, this book discusses the Nippon history, provides an excellent chapter on marks and backstamps with a short commentary on the different mark colors and their meanings. I particularly liked the glossary, and cross-referenced price guide index which is placed in the back of the book yet neatly references to pages and plate #'s. Because of the extensive patterns in the Nippon history, every pattern is not in the book but I was able to identify particular shapes of pieces which I could check against marks/backstamps and the price guide to get a reasonable value range. Any collector or dealer will suit their library well by having this book for education and reference to Nippon.
