Description

Parian - a high-quality, unglazed porcelain - was developed in the early 1840s by Copeland & Garrett, which was the first company to exhibit it in 1845.

Its purpose was to provide small sculptures for the public at a time when full size marble statues were gracing the homes of wealthy people. Parian - Copeland's Statuary Porcelain tells this fascinating story in detail, beginning with its origin and introduction.

The book goes on to describe the manufacturing processes of mould-making and the casting of the figures.

Also included is a comprehensive catalogue of Copeland's productions of statuettes, groups and portrait busts.
