This is the First Edition of Edward Dillon's definitive study, Porcelain. The book was published as part of "The Connoisseur's Library," a prestigious series aimed at serious collectors and scholars in the early 20th century.
Dillon's work is notable for its technical and historical rigor, moving beyond mere identification of marks (as was common at the time) to examine the nature of the paste, glazes, and decorative techniques used across Eastern and Western traditions. The volume is an essential reference for the history of ceramics, particularly the intricate differences between hard-paste and soft-paste porcelains, and is typically lavishly illustrated with numerous color and monochrome plates.
