Chats on Old Pewter (Classic Reprint) by Henri Jean Louis Joseph Masse Pdf

Excerpt from Chats on Old Pewter MY first volume on Pewter Plate was published in 1904, just at the time that the first Exhibition of Pewter was held at Clifford's Inn Hall. As it was the first in the field in its own department, for Mr. Welch's History of the Pewterers' Company did not attempt to treat the subject from any other than the historical, and, in some cases, the social point of view, it has been of use to many dealers and many collectors, who have acknowledged their indebtedness, and to some others, who have thought such acknowledgment unnecessary. These latter might have allowed me the copyright in my own mistakes, particularly in some obvious printers' errors.

Chats on English China (Classic Reprint) by Arthur Hayden Pdf

Excerpt from Chats on English China This little volume has been primarily written with a view to enable the possessors of old china to determine the factories at which their ware was produced. A modest attempt has been made to show that the china-shelf is a record of men's triumphs and failures, and the fantastic shepherds and shepherdesses, lustrous bowls, queer printed dishes, and bizarre decorated jugs, may be regarded by a reflective mind as so many symbols representing something less perishable than the clay of the potter. These Chats originally appeared in the pages of Our Home. In collecting them in volume form I trust that they will appeal to a wider circle of readers. Never was a greater interest taken in Art, and the growth of popular literature has developed a taste for objects of art in the home. The china-shelf is now regarded as worthy of keen and discriminating study. Its treasures, often heirlooms, have been brought into the light of day, and amateur collectors can now be numbered by thousands. I am enabled to include a useful feature in the list of prices obtained at recent sales, by kind permission of the proprietors of the Connoisseur, whose Sale Prices, published monthly, is most valuable to the collector. It is hoped that the Bibliography of works on china and pottery may be of use to those who wish to study the subject more deeply, and a copious Index will prove useful for ready reference. The Chats relating to Lustre Ware, Old English Mugs, and Wedgwood are not upon English china, but deal with earthenware; they are included in the volume in order to increase its scope and usefulness.

Chats on Old Prints by Arthur Hayden Pdf

Excerpt from Chats on Old Prints: With 110 Illustrations and a Coloured Frontispiece It is a matter Open to question whether the younger units of the present generation, who have grown up in the environment of the pictorial magazine and journal and the thousand-and-one forms of illustration by modern process, quite realise the departure from the older methods of engraving. Finely wrought steel engraving is a lost art, and the wood engraver of middle-victorian days with his sandbag, his boxwood block, and his graver has gone to that most permanent of all furrows, the grave itself, which Time has cut enduringly.

Chats on Old Copper and Brass (Classic Reprint) by Frederick William Burgess Pdf

Excerpt from Chats on Old Copper and Brass The collection of old metal may at first sight appear a somewhat unattractive hobby; a moment's reflection, however, brings to mind the wonderful art treasures of metal in our museums, gathered together from many parts of the world; not necessarily of the precious metals, for many of the most cunningly contrived objects of antiquarian research are of copper in one or more of its numerous forms of alloy. Copper is the basis of so many alloys of which metallic curios are formed, that in its combination with other metals it gives the collector an almost inexhaustible field of research. It was the metal of the ancients, which in combination with tin gave them that useful metal with which to fashion weapons of offence and defence, and later, as the Bronze Age advanced, utilitarian objects of household economy. Collectors find the Age of Metals unfolding as they arrange their collections with orderly sequence, and thereby trace the progress of artificers throughout the periods which have intervened since the first bronze celt was moulded to the present day.
