Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Porcelain: A Handbook to the China Made in England During the Eighteenth Century as Illustrated by Specimens Chiefly in the National Collections Contributions to the history of these factories, but the complete tale has not yet been told. Of the smaller and more obscure factories we may learn much in some instances, very little in others. When a few thousand pounds have been sunk in a vain attempt at china-making, the circumstances of the failure are not willingly published far and wide. On the other hand, some of the minor factories have left tangible and fairly complete records of their history. The origin and nature of English porcelain is treated with some fulness in my introductory chapter. I need not here re capitulate the distinctions, such as they are, between hard and soft paste, and between natural and artificial porcelain. These distinctions are dwelt upon in the earlier chapters of this Handbook, where also will be found brief accounts of the chief materials employed in the several factories. For fuller details of a technical kind, and for more numerous analyses of clays and porcelains, reference may be made to some of the books named in my Bibliographical Notes. Here, however, the'author may be permitted to refer to the discovery, made by him nearly forty years ago, of the early use of bone-ash in the porcelain made at Bow. A claim is made in Chapter III. Anent the introduction of this most important constituent into the body of English china. That introduction has proved of supreme importance in the later manufacture of imitative porcelain, from 1760 at least, if not earlier, down to the present day. In spite of the vagueness, the ineptitude, even the actual errors, in the 1749 Specification of Thomas Frye's invention, I am convinced that to this Englishman, an accomplished draughtsman' and mezzotint engraver, the ceramic world owes a debt of considerable magnitude. In consequence the argument as to this matter will be found to have been developed, in the chapter on Bow porcelain, to a very considerable extent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heraldic devices first appeared on ceramics in Western Europe from the sixteenth century onwards; however, it was not until the 1760s that British ceramic manufactories began executing commissions for services displaying heraldic devices for the gentry. This book explores the rise of the new gentry class and the market for armorial services through the case study of the Pendock Barry service. The case study is presented from three angles. It looks at Pendock Neale Barry (1757–1833) who commissioned the service, then considers the evidence for attributing the service to the Derby factory during the period 1805–1810, and finally looks at the evidence supporting an attribution of the decoration to Billingsley. The case study sets out a novel approach to understanding heraldic devices on ceramics by bringing together the disciplines of detailed genealogical research, cultural knowledge, and chemical analytical compositional data. This multidisciplinary approach enables the armorial services to be considered and understood through the lens of heritage, culture, and science.
