European Ceramics by Robin Hildyard
The history of ceramics is extraordinarily diverse, ranging from crude clay utensils to highly decorative pieces of immense beauty and craftsmanship. This book highlights key developments, techniques, discoveries and styles - from earthenware, stoneware and tin-glaze to the invention of porcelain and the impact of industrialisation.
'The fact that such wide-ranging books of this kind are unusual these days of subject specialisation makes this volume doubly valuable' Ceramics Review
Robin Hildyard was formerly a curator in the Ceramics & Glass department at the V&A and is a leading expert in English pottery and early English glass. He is also the author of English Pottery 1620-1840 (V&A 2005).
