      • Product Description: 'Young's book is quite simply the best history of early English porcelain there is' Apollo This is the first book of its kind to explore the 18th-century English porcelain industry as a whole. Design processes are discussed in relation to manufacturing techniques and to the actual appearance of the figures and tablewares.

        Other previously unexplored topics, based on extensive documentary research, include plagiarism and industrial espionage, raw materials and factory siting and terms of employment. This is also the first study to look beyond questions of production and to examine in detail the sale and marketing of English porcelain, in the context of consumption and the spread of polite culture in 18th-century England.
