"First edition of an early account of the Staffordshire pottery industry, important for being partly based on the oral accountsof some of the leading figures. It is especially useful for its histories of the firms of Wedgewood and Spode and for details of styles and techniques. The work is dedicated to Josiah Spode, though he died as the work was in the press. Page 221 contains the stop press: "While the Printer was arranging the Types of this part, and almostof this identical page, the Author received the distressing intelligence that . Josia Spode Esq. had suddenly expired."--Abebooks website

The Material Culture of Tableware is a fascinating and authoritative study of patterned tableware in the USA. This book undertakes a visual analysis of Johnson Brothers patterns of tableware pottery, with reference to comparable designs by other British companies, such as Spode and Adams. It examines how this practical genre reflected the aesthetic values, sense of identity and aspirations of the American consumers who purchased its products. The study also sheds light on British opinions and understandings of American culture. The book's chronological organization shows how tableware designs reflected the cultural developments of American society during the long 20th century. From status-seeking 1890s beaux-arts patterns and the nostalgic historical scenes of the 1930s, to whimsical 1960s patterns and the contemporary motifs of the 1970s, The Material Culture of Tableware tells a compelling story about who 20th-century middle-class Americans were and wanted to be.
