Book Description
The popularity of Japanese ceramics in the West caused a vast and delightful variety of wares to be made in the late nineteenth century for export. Colourful Imari porcelain in deep blue, orange-red, and gold, Fukagawa porcelain in imaginative designs, as well as the softly coloured Satsuma earthenwares, are the best known of the old Japanese exports, shown here in hundreds of variations created by skilled decorators. This new edition has an updated values reference and additional items shown in each chapter, especially early Imari wares from the period c. 1700. Also presented are the exotic Sumida and Banko wares, relative newcomers to the field whose popularity has grown steadily over the last ten years. Makers' and decorators' marks, unusual shapes, design variations, and hard-to-find examples are all shown in 600 colour photographs with identifying captions and concise text.

Book Description
"Manassas National Battlefield Park's General Management Plan (1983) named the Wheeler Tract as the site for the relocation of the picnic area and its attendant facilities. The area chosen for this relocation had been previously identified as the site of the late eighteenth- to early nineteenth-century complex known as "Portici." An archeological study of the proposed relocation area was required pursuant to planning and development. ... Nineteenth-century Portici evolved from a small tenant-occupied farmstead established during the eighteenth century. This tenant farm grew into a middling tobacco plantation called "Pohoke." Later the eighteenth-century dwelling was abandoned when Portici mansion house was constructed in circa 1820. Portici plantation became a flourishing, middling, multiple-grain-based plantation by the eve of the American Civil War. ... Archeological and archival work was conducted to document and assess the eligibility of Pohoke, Portici, and the Lewis house for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. Collectively these three sites, with all their ancillary sites on the Wheeler tract, graphically depict the evolution of local lifeways and patterns of development in a frontier Piedmont plantation."--Abstract, page vii.

Book Description
The Copeland Collection of 134 Chinese and Japanese ceramic figures, perhaps the most important assemblage of its kind still in private hands, is recognized internationally for the superb quality of its many rare forms. Acquired by Mrs. Lammot du Pont Copeland over the past fifty years, each of these beautifully modeled human and animal figures testifies to the unerring eye of a premiere collector.The majority of these figures are of porcelain, produced during the late seventeenth to the late eighteenth centuries, principally for export to the West. Each individual piece displays the meticulous artistry, the marvelous enameling, and the animation and wit characteristic of this remarkably innovative period in ceramic history However modest in scale, many are important works of art.--Amazon.com.
