Descrição do livro

How To Collect Continental China by C. H. Wylde. This concise handbook surveys continental porcelain manufacturing and collecting across European factories from seventeenth to nineteenth centuries. It introduces the history of European porcelain, explains the transition from faience to true porcelain, and chronicles major French, Belgian, German, Dutch, Austrian, Russian, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Swiss, Danish, Swedish, and Hungarian producers. The book presents factory-by-factory treatments: origins, periods, and marks—including crowned initials, swords, towers, and date letters—and offers cautions about forgeries and the unreliability of marks alone for dating. It includes plates and lists of marks, and discusses notable wares such as Meissen, Vincennes/Sèvres, Chantilly, and Sceaux, among others. Intended as a practical introduction for collectors and students of ceramics, it provides guidance on identification, dating, and the evolution of continental porcelain from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century, with emphasis on discerning genuine wares from forgeries.
