This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Even a cursory glance at the 121 items selected for presentation in this illustrated volume reveals the breadth of the collection. The introductory essay touches on the historical context of the tureens, relating their creation to the history of dining practices from the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries. Each entry includes up-to-date information on makers, fabrication methods, and provenance. In addition, the extensive appendix includes an essay describing the process of XRF analysis (energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence), which is used in the identification and quantification of elements in silver objects and thus aids in their dating."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Fragile Diplomacy written by Maureen Cassidy-Geiger and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While imported Chinese porcelain had become a valuable commodity in Europe in the seventeenth century, local attempts to produce porcelain long remained unsuccessful. At last the secret of hard-paste porcelain was uncovered, and in 1710 the first European porcelain was manufactured in Saxony. Meissen porcelain, still manufactured today, soon ranked in value with silver and gold. This thorough and lavishly illustrated volume explores the early years of Meissen porcelain and how the princes of Saxony came to use highly prized porcelain pieces as diplomatic gifts for presentation to foreign courts. An eminent team of international contributors examines the trade of Meissen with other nations, from England to Russia. They also investigate the cultural ambience of the Dresden Court, varying tastes of the markets, the wide range of porcelain objects, and their designers and makers. Individual chapters are devoted to gifts to Denmark, other German courts, the Holy Roman Empire, Italy, France, and other nations. For every Meissen collector or enthusiast, this book will be not only a treasured handbook but also a source of visual delight.
