London: Faber & Faber. Hardcover. 0571096727 Includes two handwritten and signed Christmas cards by Bernard Leach [1887-1979]. These cards, mailed in 1950 and 1951, include designs by Mr. Leach who "is rightly regarded as the father of British studio pottery and was a forceful presence for over 60 years" - British Council. Both cards were posted from St. Ives, Cornwall where Mr. Leach operated his pottery. The book itself is the first treatise by a potter on the traditions which have been handed down by Koreans and Japanese from the greatest period of Chinese ceramics in the Sung dynasty, and is the outcome of twenty-five years' work in the Far East and in England. It deals with four types of pottery: Japanese raku, English slipware, stoneware, and Oriental porcelain. 1945 reprint of the Second Edition, sans dust jacket. xxvii, [1], 294 pages. Glossary. Index. Generously illustrated with black and white plates and diagrams. Prior owner's details upon front free endpaper. A nice memento of Mr. Leach, who was born in Hong Kong and stated "?All my life I have been a courier between East and West. I believe in the interplay and marriage of the two complimentary branches of fuman culture as a prelude to the unity and maturity of men." - British Council . Good. 1945. Second Edition.
