Book Synopsis


Trade Review
“More than 1,000 lustrous Victorian vessels appear in Majolica Mania: Transatlantic Pottery in England and the United States, 1850-1915 . . . Dozens of scholars contributed essays about ceramics makers, from central England’s venerable Wedgwood to Manhattan’s forgotten James Carr. The [majolica] designs were as majestic as fountains and fireplaces covered in dragons, and as endearingly frivolous as boots for holding toothpicks and jugs portraying baseball players.”—Eve Kahn, New York Times

“Weber and her team have produced an exceptionally well-illustrated and comprehensive database from which many new projects can grow.”—Edward S. Cooke Jr, The Burlington Magazine
