Ceramics - A Potter's Handbook

$55.00

“ Ceramics is a studio handbook for the practicing potter, intended to provide essential information on the history of man's accomplishment in clay and glazes and on the means of transforming raw, wet clay into fired and finished pieces. Prepared as a guide for the amateur as well as a reference volume for more experienced artists and craftsmen, Ceramics offers, first, an introduction to the art of ceramics through a critical review of significant historical and modern works selected from cultures around the world. Throughout the book Mr. Nelson has introduced new ideas, materials, and equipment, especially in the chapter on kilns. Numbering over 500 in black and white and 22 in colour, the illustrations for Ceramics have been treated as elements fully as substantive as the text itself. “
