It has long been possible to identify the artists and establish a value for the most expensive porcelain collectibles, such as RS Prussia, Pickard and Limoges. What has been greatly lacking is the information needed to do the same with the thousands of less expensive pieces of art porcelain, art pottery and whiteware. This book will be invaluable for such a purpose. The book does cover mark identification, care, cleaning, crazing of the surface and other valuable considerations. Price guide is also included.
