Description
Paris: Librairie de A G Debray, 1807. First Edition. Original publisher's blue paper wrappers with waste backing.. Very good; untrimmed.. 8vo, iv, [5] - 298 pp. + 2 folding plates and a printed paper spine label bound in. A guide to the new techniques and chemistry of new color glazes (by Bouillon-Lagrange) for French manufacturers. English faience, a product that mimicked the best porcelain on the market benefitted mightily from the late eighteenth century color glaze experiments of Wedgwood. Improved color glazes and the new technology of transfer printing permitted a broad range of decorative motifs that enhanced commercial appeal. Continental trade, however, was stymied by English blockades during the Empire. A printed guide to the innovations, offered here, informed and assisted those manufacturers beyond the embargo. Oppenheim, the joint author, is identified on the title as an established manufacturer. Barbier I, 287; Hirsch I, p. 652; see Dolan, Wedgwood - The First Tycoon.
