About This Book

A concise historical and practical account of tableware in America that traces the shift from wooden and pewter service to imported English and Oriental porcelains, surveys types and manufactories, and describes common forms such as teapots, pitchers, punch-bowls, and printed wares. It combines provenance and production history with collector anecdotes and guidance, documents patriotic and commemorative motifs and presidential services, and offers illustrated examples and lists of notable collections to show how domestic habits, trade networks, and changing taste shaped American china use and collecting practices.
