About this book
Chats on Old Earthenware is by Arthur Hayden, with a coloured frontispiece, 150 illustrations, and tables of over 200 illustrated marks. The preface says that a great number of readers wrote suggesting a companion volume to Chats on English China dealing with old English earthenware.
The text says that Whieldon toned his ornaments with touches of his own in green and yellow and brown, and that his solid agate ware, tortoiseshell and clouded wares and cauliflower ware have become so memorable in the cabinets of collectors that they have won him fame. Swansea gains its place from the picturesque quality of decoration, together with the equally fine quality of the ware itself, which has placed Swansea well to the front among the collectors of artistic earthenware. The text says that Liverpool stands pre-eminent in the transfer printed delft tiles, and that as early as 1750 Sadler and Green discovered the transfer printing.
