Description
A practical approach to all aspects of making porcelain pots and sculpture. The book includes information on clays, making processes (throwing, handbuilding and slipcasting), decorating and glazes. The photographs throughout make it a visual reference book as well as a useful guide. The book is lavishly illustrated with the work of an international group of artists.
