Overview
This new edition of Eric Yates-Owen and Robert Fournier's classic book on British studio potters' marks contains new and revised entries for many potters, with up-to-date information about the artists' styles, marks and addresses.
Entries are arranged alphabetically, with each entry giving biographical data, information on the type of ceramics produced, the location of the pottery and dates indicating when marks have changed, as well as images of the different marks used. Three useful indexes enable the reader to search by mark rather than maker, in various categories such as creatures, monograms and signs.
Revised by expert collector James Hazlewood, British Studio Potters' Marks, third edition, is the essential reference guide for collectors of British studio pottery.
This is the only truly comprehensive directory of 20th-century British Studio Potters' marks.
Updated internal design to present the marks more clearly
Revised and up-to-date edition of an essential reference title
Marks are listed not only alphabetically but can be found in useful categories such as animals and monograms as well
British Studio Potters' Marks is not a book to leave on the shelf, however, and use only for reference. It is a pleasure to turn the pages and study the various marks … an excellent resource and for potters, a delightful read. I have spent many pleasant hours leafing through the pages.
The third edition of this guide offers nearly five thousand marks or signatures of British ceramists and potters, making it a classic essential for collectors and students of ceramics in the United Kingdom.
