Porcelain

IN spite of the considerable literature that has sprung up upon the subject, we know little of the early history of English soft-paste porcelain. We have already spoken of the experiments made by Dr. Dwight in the seventeenth century. Dr. Lister, writing in 1699 (see above, p. 282), shows a remarkable acquaintance with the technical qualities of various kinds of porcelain: he speaks of the inward Substance and Matter of the Pots made at Saint-Cloud as the very same as that of the Chinese, hard and fine as Marble, and the self-same grain on this side vitrification. Further, the transparency of the Pots the very same. He had expected that at best they might have arrived at the Gomron ware, which is indeed little else but a total vitrification.[206] The man who wrote this must have been thoroughly acquainted with the physical qualities of porcelain; he must already have made some study of the subject. And yet not only at that time, but for the next forty-five years, there is a total absence of any evidence, documentary or practical, that porcelain was made anywhere in England.[207] {327} ......Buy Now (To Read More)
