[edit] SPODE TRANSFER PRINTED WARE 1784-1833
An extensively enlarged and revised edition of a reference that lists and illustrates every known transfer print issued by the Spode family at their works in Stoke-on-Trent during the period 1784-1833. It also covers the shapes of ware, their methods of manufacture, and the Spode marks.
Spode Transfer Printed Ware, first published in 1983, has now been extensively enlarged and revised, listing and illustrating every known transfer print issued by the Spode family at their Works in Stoke-on-Trent. More than 100 additional prints have been discovered since 1983 and are included in this new edition. Over 350 further illustrations are included, covering the shapes of the ware found decorated with printed designs, Spode marks found on the ware and the methods of manufacture used in the past and those practised today. Many of the 900 illustrations are in colour, particularly the blue and white printed ware, and the informative text discusses early ceramic printing techniques such as bat printing and pluck and dust printing. No other manufacturing potter can match the long history of the Spode Works, which still holds vast stocks of engraved copperplates, including those from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries used for the decoration of the wares illustrated in this book.
