Form has always been one of the most important aspects of ceramics. In this book, Peter Lane presents an exploration of the various elements involved in the design and making of ceramics, by concentrating on the two fundamental pottery forms - bowls and bottles. Looking at the work of an international group of artists, he explains the potters' working methods and processes, describes their ideas and sources of stimulus and shows the beautiful work they have done.

Advances in the quality and supply of raw materials. newly available stains and underglaze colors. and progress in kiln design have all contributed to the growth of vividly decorated work. The source of it all is still the individual potter's imagination-and this book looks in detail at the work of sixteen top ceramicists.

The great age of European ceramic design began around 1500 and ended in the early 19th century with the introduction of large-scale production of ceramics. In this illustrated history, with nearly 300 color and black and white photos and reproductions, curator Howard Coutts considers the main stylistic trends�Renaissance, Mannerism, Oriental, Rococo, and Neoclassicism�as they were represented in such products as Italian Majolica, Dutch Delftware, Meissen and S�vres porcelain, Staffordshire, and Wedgwood pottery. He pays close attention to changes in eating habits over the period, particularly the layout of a formal dinner, and discusses the development of ceramics as room decoration, the transmission of images via prints, marketing of ceramics and other luxury goods, and the intellectual background to Neoclassicism.
