Overview

The tradition of decorating white china with a blue underglaze can be traced back as far as the 14th century. First produced in the Far East, this distinctive china was eventually exported - and even made - all over the world. The book takes a look at the history of the pottery and the styles of decoration, from the ancient Ming dynasty to 19th-century Spode, from Florentine mythological beasts to the popular willow pattern.
