5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book, March 22, 2005

This review is from: Decorating with China and Glass (Hardcover)

I really enjoyed reading this book. It's quite informative and there are a lot of marvelous photos of various types of china and glass in this book. They show diverse styles and patterns throughout the centuries and cultures. There is also a good section on how and where to store your china and glass. Such amazing things they can do with glass. I was impressed. I really liked the section on the art of the table. Can't get enough of the elegant table settings! Such beautiful kitchens in this book as well. It's a great book. I only wished it were longer.

Definitely a good coffee table or shelf book. Beautiful photos. I wish my kitchen looked like some of the photos! The author does a good job in trying to tell the reader where each piece in the photos are from or at least what kind they are. There is an index in the back and some store suggestions that have both the address of the store and the store's website which I found helpful.

I borrowed this book at the library. It is SO wonderful that I immediately ordered a copy for myself. If you love white ironstone and antique china like I do this book will not disappoint. Page after page of total bliss for me:)
