Book excerpt: The exhibition-catalogue shows, for the first time, neo-classical porcelain from the New York Twinight Collection. The private collection focuses on royal porcelain manufactured in the early 19th century in Vienna, Berlin and Sèvres. Single pieces and whole ensembles illuminate the artistic and technical exchange that existed between the manufacturers. Accumulated with great enthusiasm, but without noise, over the last fifteen years, the Twinight Collection has grown to be an extensive collection of priceless neo-classical porcelain with royal provenance-almost all objects were gifts to kings and emperors. Texts written by international experts draw on a large selection of original sources from the manufacturers in Vienna, Berlin and Sèvres, much of which is pictured or documented in writing. The essays examine the exchange of sample pieces, the sharing of motifs and the surprisingly open correspondence between the directors regarding raw materials, recepies and technique. Numerous design sketches embellish the rich selection of illustrations in the catalogue, many of which display astonishingly intricate gold-leaf work and hyper-real cameos depicting busts, flower-bouqets, landscapes, nudes, horse-races and other scenes, like James Cook's discovery of the ice-islands. The catalogue contains six separate contributions along with an appendix with inventory and reference lists and an index of persons.--Publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nineteenth-Century English Ceramic Art There are many books on English pottery and porcelain which treat of old ceramic art, but there are very few which deal with the later work of the nineteenth century, which show the special wares of the Victorian period and those of our own times, and which record the development of potteries whose oldest products are modern. Hence this book, which is an endeavour to do some justice to the descendants of the eighteenth-century potters, will at the same time recognise the talents of men who have moved along on independent lines, working out ideas which are characteristic of their wares.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the book on porcelain we have been waiting for. . . . A remarkable achievement."—Edmund de Waal, author of The Hare with Amber Eyes A sweeping cultural and economic history of porcelain, from the eighteenth century to the present Porcelain was invented in medieval China—but its secret recipe was first reproduced in Europe by an alchemist in the employ of the Saxon king Augustus the Strong. Saxony’s revered Meissen factory could not keep porcelain’s ingredients secret for long, however, and scores of Holy Roman princes quickly founded their own mercantile manufactories, soon to be rivaled by private entrepreneurs, eager to make not art but profits. As porcelain’s uses multiplied and its price plummeted, it lost much of its identity as aristocratic ornament, instead taking on a vast number of banal, yet even more culturally significant, roles. By the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, it became essential to bourgeois dining, and also acquired new functions in insulator tubes, shell casings, and teeth. Weaving together the experiences of entrepreneurs and artisans, state bureaucrats and female consumers, chemists and peddlers, Porcelain traces the remarkable story of “white gold” from its origins as a princely luxury item to its fate in Germany’s cataclysmic twentieth century. For three hundred years, porcelain firms have come and gone, but the industry itself, at least until very recently, has endured. After Augustus, porcelain became a quintessentially German commodity, integral to provincial pride, artisanal industrial production, and a familial sense of home. Telling the story of porcelain’s transformation from coveted luxury to household necessity and flea market staple, Porcelain offers a fascinating alternative history of art, business, taste, and consumption in Central Europe.
