Beautifully illustrated, these articles, which include examples that range from ancient Egyptian pottery to contemporary china painted pots, highlight the universal love of ceramics. The journal concludes with a series of bibliographic essays by leading authors on the most inuential ceramic publications they encountered in their careers.Now in its fourteenth year of publication, Ceramics in America is considered the journal of record for historical ceramics scholarship in the American context and is intended for collectors, historical archaeologists, curators, decorative arts students, social historians, and contemporary potters.Table of ContentsEditorial Statement: Robert HunterIntroduction: Robert HunterX Commandments: Ivor Nol HumeTen Key Ceramic Finds from London's Archaeological Collections: Jacqui PearceA History of Chinese Export Porcelain in Ten Objects: 'Ron FuchsTop Ten Vessels in Modern and Contemporary Art: Garth ClarkCuratorial Ten: The World in Clay from the Newark Museum: Ulysses DietzI-Porcelain: John C.
