This new study is one of the first to give a broad picture of the pottery trade in the 17th to 19th centuries, covering the main types of ware from the beginnings of delftware, through the rise of the Staffordshire potteries, to the decline of fine pottery brought about by mass-production for the export market and the hugely expanding urban population. It provides an overview of the ramifications of the trade during the period, framing an informed but accessible account exploring themes such as the fashion for collecting, trade and distribution, export markets and much more. Throughout the text, the cross-referencing between themes is highlighted by carefully chosen colour illustrations.
