Pottery and Porcelain Restoration is a practical guide for amateurs to the craft of the professional restorer. With over 360 photographs, it explains the simplest, safest and ethical techniques that are recommended today and - essentially - do not further damage your pieces. Written with clear practical detail, it explains the full process and gives unique insight into the delicate job of the ceramic restorer. This new book introduces the history of pottery and porcelain, and gives an account of the methods and ethics of ceramic restoration; it gives a complete list and details of materials and equipment, and particularly advises on the best choice of glues; it describes the full restoration process, from preparation and cleaning to gluing and modelling, and finally to painting and gilding and provides step-by-step instructions for gluing multiple breaks, filling chips and large missing areas, as well as making lids, teapot spouts, hands, leaves, fingers and handles. Restoration examples are illustrated such as making Beswick horse legs, replacing missing handles on a Chinese jug and painting a Clarice Cliff jug and, finally, vital tricks of the trade are shared throughout and useful tips to setting up a workshop are given.

Excerpt from A Manual of Marks on Pottery and Porcelain: A Dictionary of Easy Reference The Marks, when pencilled or incised, vary very con siderably a different hand, a full brush, or a flaw in the material, all tend to make them unrecognizable; even when printed they are often blurred by the action of the fire or running of the enamel, and when impressed, a shrinking of the wet clay will change or obliterate them.

Excerpt from A Manual of Pottery and Porcelain for American Collectors The very few years during which public interest has been growing in this country to an appreciation of fictile wares could scarcely suffice to bring forth an exhaustive and detailed literature. Our public are just awaking to a comprehension of the Old World's advance and superiority in arts which we have yet scarcely attempted; but they have in their graves the honored dust of ages: and experience, with them, is of a thousand years; our history may be one in which the arts shall not be measured by this toilsome time. In collating these pages the author has had recourse to those authorities of the Old World which are there regarded as standard, and as it may be of interest to the reader to make a further excursion in this domain, a few authors' names may assist his journey among the books. In the field of Ancient Pottery, Birch's history is complete, although this is not a part absolute of ceramic art; still it is essential if we choose to follow its interesting historical progress.

The Conservation and Restoration of Ceramics brings together the wide range of current information relevant to the practising conservator. The book opens with a discussion of the fundamental nature of the ceramic medium, information which is of primary importance when selecting treatments or considering preventive conservation measures. Details on techniques are given in a series of chapters covering the restoration and conservation processes, but the emphasis is on the basic principles involved in the choice of materials and methods. The nature and properties of materials commonly in use are fully discussed and guidance is given on the facilities and equipment needed. Also covered in the book are old restoration materials and methods, the ethics of ceramics conservation, examination and recording, display treatments and emergency procedures. Now in paperback, this book will be invaluable to practising conservators and readers of conservation as well as of interest to museum curators and collectors.
