Book Description
Combining over 1,000 color photographs of ceramic tableware, an equal number of manufacturers' marks, and an expansive text, this is the most comprehensive catalog of the famous British Willow pattern and its known variations ever attempted, featuring wares spanning from the late eighteenth to the early twenty-first century. Not only are the wares of the famous English Staffordshire potting district displayed, but also Willow Ware from Yorkshire, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland. The text provides detailed information on over 400 different pottery factories, including William Adams & Sons, Bo'ness Pottery, Copeland & Garrett, S. Fielding & Company, Minton, and Wedgwood. Also included is information on foreign retailers and importers, a glossary, bibliography, several indicies, and current market values in the captions. This book will be a continual reference source and inspiring for all who appreciate British pottery and the timeless Willow pattern.
Reader Reviews
I would say Blue Willow, but it comes in many colours. This is an absolutely huge book, with many, many beautiful pictures of a wide variety of pieces. The book is a tremendous resource of information, not only about British Willow, but about British potteries, their histories, and the marks they used. Of course this is the most comprehensive source of information on Willow, Blue and otherwise, in existence. The odd thing, is that it is a brand new, book, just published this year, with a list price of $69.95. If Amazon is really willing to sell it for $14 (which I seriously doubt) I'd jump at the chance.
