Inhaltsangabe

Travis, an expert on Haviland china, portrays the progress of this china in form and decoration from the formative years in the 1840s-1880s and on into the 20th century, which brought many changes to the Haviland companies. About 570 color photographs show the progression of patterns and style, from the Japanese influence, the Impressionist, Art Nouveau and Art Deco styles, to recent patterns and shapes. To enable the reader to identify patterns, many are catalogued by Schleiger numbers, the form of pattern identification preferred by most Haviland matchers. The volume also includes sections on setting a proper table, pieces that made up a complete set, and stories about famous and influential people who ate from the china. Annotation c.
