What reading level is Collecting Old Lustre Ware book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
FIG. 24 RARE PURPLE GROUND Among many rare examples of purple ground with fine work from Dr. Harper's collection, we wish to mention two in particular. The first is a purple ground with a blue hunting scene, the second being a similar ground with the vine motif and floral decoration in a wreath, tinted creamy pink.
These examples of work (difficult to photograph) are probably experimental pieces, made in the height of the palmy days by the Staffordshire potters who 46 PINK LUSTRE spent consider...able sums in experiments and were keenly competitive. This excessive competition was the principal factor in the extinction of several under- takings which eventually failed.
(B) PINK LUSTRE PLEASING EFFECT Not all the weak shades of copper lustre deserve the term pink. The best variety has none of the blue tinge which is perceived in the weak purple shades. The lustre pink is often at its best when it has sunk a little into an old soft ware. In examples where the decoration is neat and the form also desirable, the glaze should be accepted : discrimination and re- straint are however FIG.
