Conta & Boehme Fairing Trinket Boxes is a collection of over 1000 Victorian era porcelain fairing trinket boxes, including many rare and never-before-seen pieces. Fairings were prizes won at local fairs during the 1800s in the US and Europe. With over 1300 images, this book also touches on other items made by Conta & Boehme in Poessneck, Germany. Some of those items include inkwells, pocket watch holders, pin cushions, cigar holders, match holders and more. The author shares many observations, along with tips for correctly identifying matches between the lid and base of a trinket box. Also included are details for each item and a few interesting finds in her personal collection that has spanned over thirty years.

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)
