Keramikmarken aus aller Welt

This is a practical little handbook for anyone who wants to learn more about the ceramics they hold in their hands. Pottery, such as stoneware, earthenware, majolica, or faience, has been marked with brands since the beginnings of ceramic production. These marks identified the manufacturing company and also served as personal signatures of the respective masters and artists. In a concise manner, you will find all the important facts about the individual brands, allowing you to quickly and easily determine the age and origin of ceramic products. The marks are listed chronologically, and a location index helps in quickly finding the sought-after brand. In the introductory section, the author also provides an overview of the history of ceramics, briefly outlines the various products, and gives tips for identification.
