Those Skilled Workers Making Ironstone
Dion, Jacqueline Beaudry and Jean-Pierre
A must-have for ironstone collectors, this very interesting 21-page spiral-bound book focuses on the process of manufacturing 19th century ironstone and the wide array of workers with different skill sets who made it possible. Chapters focus on workers responsible for the mixing and shaping of clay, the role of modelers and mould makers, and the responsibilities of the saggar makers, the placers, the dippers, the oven men, and the firemen. Information and images from technical books, 19th century visits to manufacturers, potters’ arbitration cases, and many “Wanted” advertisements found in newspapers of the day are included.
