Book Review - Warman's English & Continental Pottery & Porcelain Identification & Price Guide

With 10,000 new listings, 600 photos (including a color section), and featuring 180 major categories, Warman's English & Continental Pottery & Porcelain Identification and Price Guide is a must-have reference book for any collector or dealer!

With a book as information rich as this one, a How To Use This book chapter is essential - and there is one provided at the very beginning so that you can easily target the exact information you are looking for! Even better, along with the How To guide is an explanation of how prices were determined, how to best care for ceramics, and a state of the market report.

The listings in the book are organized alphabetically by category, and include a brief history, a list of references, a list of museums, reproduction alerts, collecting hints, marks, and examples of items being sold in the marketplace today (with some harder to find items also included to provide a fuller range for each category).

The back of the book has an appendix with British Registry Mark information, additional notes on marks, a glossary of terms, a bibliography, and an index. The authors have done an amazing job of making sure the reader can easily use this book to their greatest advantage!
