Item description from seller

Color pictorial glossy wraps. 212 pp., profusely illustrated with hundreds of color plates. "North Carolina Pottery catalogs the collection of The Mint Museums in Charlotte, which, with over 1,600 pieces, is considered the most comprehensive in any public institution. Descriptive information about more than four hundred individual pieces in the collection is combined with five original essays, providing a visual and textual guide to a vibrant living tradition." "Illustrated with hundreds of color photographs, the catalog includes biographical entries on the potters; descriptions of potteries; and details about individual pieces, such as size, glaze, distinguishing marks, provenance, and intended use. The collection includes traditional utilitarian wares from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, transitional or "fancy wares" made during the first half of the twentieth century, and contemporary objects."--Jacket.

Store description

Mullen Books maintains a very active computerized inventory which grows by 2-300 titles per week. Our specialties include the Humanities, with an emphasis on Art, Architecture, Photography, Decorative Arts, History, as well as Periodicals related to those areas. We have very rare as well as fairly common titles. Current inventory is approximately 79,000 titles. We have about 1000' of backlog in our specialties numbering over 30,000 items (including 20,000+ smaller and ephemeral catalogues devoted to individual artist exhibitions). Current stock occupies over 2.3 miles of shelving. We are active buyers as well as very active sellers, and supply entire reference libraries as well as individual titles. We ship books almost everywhere, with the exception of China due to restrictions. Our website mullenbooks.com maintains our entire database of over 150,000 titles dynamically, so you can submit "wants" for books which are listed, but not currently in-stock. It is a major research tool. Despite what Google may indicate, we are only open to visitors by appointment, as our schedules are dynamic depending upon the needs of our valued employees.…
