Tea-pots and other tea ware gave great scope for invention to the salt-glaze designers. Heart-shape or lovers' tea-pots, and house. tea-pots are not rare. Fig. 51 represents one of the latter in the Schreiber Collection. Some of the house tea-pots were of more complex design and with three stories on one side and two on the other; most present a curious and bizarre spout in which a mask, a bird's neck and bill, and an arm, are strangely associated. There is every probability that those fine and rare pieces of salt-glazed white ware, which are covered all over with a very deep cobalt-blue glaze, and enamelled with ornaments in black and opaque tin-white, were made about 1750 by William Littler of Longton. The decoration of these corresponds in many particulars with that of the Longton Hall porcelain, described by Mr. J. E. Nightingale as the work of W. Littler. Mr. Littler lived at Brownhills near Burslem; his father was a potter. He began business about the year 1745, and soon afterwards commenced his experiments on porcelain. We may assign his blue-glazed stoneware to a date between 1745 and 1750. The pieces enamelled on the top of the blue glaze, and by means of a second firing at a lower heat, are very rare; we doubt whether the recognised specimens could not be counted on the figures of one hand. When one admires an early sharply-cut piece of salt-glazed ware, one does not perhaps at once realise how many steps have been taken in order to secure the final result.

This carved mould consisted of two or more pieces, flat or curved in...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive bibliography and exhibition chronology of the world's greatest museum of the decorative arts and design. The Victoria and Albert Museum, or South Kensington Museum as it used to be known, was founded by the British Government in 1852, out of the proceeds from the Great Exhibition of 1851. Like the Exhibition, it aimed to improve the expertise of designers, and the taste of the public, by exposing them to examples of good design from all countries and periods. 2,500 publications have to date been produced by, for, or in association with the V&A. The National Art Library, which is part of the Museum, has prepared this detailed catalogue, supplemented by a secondary list of 500 other books closely related to the V&A. The 1,500 exhibitions and displays recorded include those held in the main Museum and at its branches, the Bethnal Green Museum (now the National Museum of Childhood) and the Theatre Museum, Covent Garden, and additionally those it has organized at external venues, in Great Britain and abroad. The exhibitions and publications are fully cross-referenced, and there are name, title and subject indexes to the whole work, as well as an explanatory introduction.
