5.0 out of 5 stars Splendid reference material for anyone interested in pottery!, April 3, 2008

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Ceramics from Islamic Lands (Paperback)

This is a splendid book, helpful in so many ways if you are interested in pottery, history, or arts. With sufficient technical material to be useful for the serious potter, it is still accessible for someone just interested in the styles and beauty of pottery.
