Ceramics in America 2013 (Ceramics in America Annual)
Now in its thirteenth 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.
Of particular note this year is an updated biography of Edgeï¬eld, South Carolina, master potter Thomas Chandler. Another Edgeï¬eld topic—the origins and cultural uses of the face vessel—will surely intrigue social historians and collectors. Presented for the ï¬rst time is a detailed investigation into the so-called Lower James River Valley School of stoneware—a hugely proliï¬c center of production that has never received much scholarly attention. Other wide-ranging topics are the twentieth-century ceramic sculpture of Waylande Gregory, early English money boxes, and the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century tin-glazed wares in the Temple Newsam House collection in Leeds. New information about the American China Manu factory of Gousse Bonnin and George Anthony Morris and the stone ware of B. C. Milburn of Alexandria, Virginia, round out this year’s robust offerings.
The journal concludes with critical reviews of recent ceramic publications.
