During the last quarter of the nineteenth century, American potters were struggling to produce quality ceramics to rival that of the English and French. Knowles, Taylor & Knowles took up the challenge, determined to produce a bone china that would be the pride of America. Highly regarded in its day, Knowles, Taylor & Knowles made Belleek Ware, Lotus Ware, and China Whiskey Jugs which are prized possessions among collectors today. Here is a book to inspire dealers and collectors alike. Valuable information concerning the identification of the various wares, the manufacturer's marks, decorative techniques, artists and the current values is included. Each phase of the company's production is illustrated in 245 color photographs.

Majolica Mania: Transatlantic Pottery in England and the United States, 1850-1915
<b>The first comprehensive study of the most important ceramic innovation of the 19th century</b> <p/> Colorful, wildly imaginative, and technically innovative, majolica was functional and aesthetic ceramic ware. Its subject matter reflects a range of 19th-century preoccupations, from botany and zoology to popular humor and the macabre. <i>Majolica Mania</i> examines the medium's considerable impact, from wares used in domestic settings to monumental pieces at the World's Fairs. Essays by international experts address the extensive output of the originators and manufacturers in England--including Minton, Wedgwood, and George Jones--and the migration of English craftsmen to the U.S. New research including information on important American makers in New York, Baltimore, and Philadelphia is also featured. Fully illustrated, the book is enlivened by new photography of pieces from major museums and private collections in the U.S. and Great Britain. <p/>Distributed for Bard Graduate Center <br><p> <br><strong>Exhibition Schedule: </strong></p><b>Bard Graduate Center Gallery, New York</b><br> (September 24, 2021-January 2, 2022) <p/><b>Walters Art Museum, Baltimore</b><br> (February 26-July 31, 2022) <p/><b>Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent</b><br> (October 15, 2022-February 26, 2023)
