The book contains high quality color photos of hundreds upon hundreds of artifacts, perhaps the most comprehensive catalog of the State Porcelain Factory works in existence. It also contains a complete historical review and description of technological methods used ever to be found in published literature. There is a very helpful addendum with biographies of individual artists (accompanied by their photos), glossary of terms, listings of key employees from a number of specific years, chronology of international exhibitions that presented works of the factory, and much more... All-in-all, staggering amount of information, by far the best book available on the subject.

The book is long out of print and quite scarce. We have only single copy in stock, in excellent like new condition. There are mild corner bumps and tiny amount of shelf wear to the back cover, but the book is in otherwise near mint condition, with tight binding and immaculately clean pages and text block.
