From its ninth-century origins in the Near East, the tin-glazed production process spread throughout the Mediterranean during the Middle Ages, reaching France and the Low Countries in the sixteenth century. Delftware potteries came to dominate the ceramics market in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries by frequently imitating Chinese decorative patterns. Immigrant Flemish potters established the industry in London, from where it spread to Bristol, Wincanton, Liverpool, Glasgow, Belfast, and Dublin. These potteries produced stylish earthenware vessels for the middle class, boosted by exports to America and a brisk demand for drinking cups for tea, coffee, and chocolate at home. In Delftware at Historic Deerfield, 1600-1800, Amanda E. Lange introduces a wide range of topics pertaining to the history, manufacture, sale, and consumption of tin-glazed ceramics. She also traces the acquisitions of delft that have built the collection at Historic Deerfield. In all, ninety-seven pieces from the museum's English, Dutch, and French delftware collection are presented, all in full color, many with details and records of provenance. Chapters review the variety of delftware forms, ranging from posset pots to punch bowls, based on function rather than chronology or decoration. Suitably exacting in conception and beautiful in execution, Delftware at Historic Deerfield is a valuable resource for dealers, collectors, museum professionals, or anyone who appreciates delft."
