During this period “English pottery, at first firmly based on mediaeval traditions and primarily intended for a local market, underwent a profound transformation with many potting areas, especially Staffordshire, becoming international centres for ceramic production and taste.” – The Publisher.
The book contains images of 450 pieces of English ceramics.
