About the Book

Tin-glazed pottery was imported from the Mediterranean over 500 years ago, but "Delftware", with its distinctive blue-and-white designs influenced by Chinese porcelain, was first made in Northern Europe in the Netherlands, and subsequently in the burgeoning English potteries for the affluent middle classes. Changing fashions and the emergence of new materials and manufacturing techniques forced the obsolescence of Delftware by 1840, and pieces today command very high prices. Every piece in this catalogue is illustrated, in many cases with more than one view. The book also contains authoritative essays which provide a wider context for Delftware.

Table of Contents:
Part 1 Introduction: the social history of Delftware; the manufacture of Delftware and its distribution; influences on the shape and decoration of English Delftware; tin-glazed tiles in England and Scotland; the function of Delftware tiles; the history of the Delftware collection in the Victoria and Albert Museum. Part 2 The catalogue of wares: introduction to the catalogue of wares; an introduction to the flatwares; chargers and early moulded dishes; other plates and dishes; jugs, mugs, cups and goblets; other miscellaneous jugs and cups, including fuddling cups, puzzle jugs and posset pots; bottles, flasks and other containers for alcoholic beverages and for water; porringers and bowls; salts, candlesticks, trays, baskets, tureens and sauce-boats; utensils for tea, coffee and chocolate, and food warmers; vases, urns and receptacles for flowers; storage jars, apothecaries' wares and receptacles for storing and dispensing medicinal preparations; miscellaneous pieces, including figures, wine bin labels and plaques; loans, continental pieces of relevance to English Delftware (including "Malling" jugs) and fakes. Part 3 The catalogue of tiles: introduction to the catalogue of tiles; painted tiles and individual tiles; printed tiles; miscellaneous painted and printed tiles. Concordance of Museum and catalogue numbers.
