Porcelain and Pots
My series on Jane Austen and the Industrial Revolution is still ongoing, although I haven't had time to update this blog!
My feature in the March/April issue looked at 'canal mania', and 'Our Wedgwood Ware' is in the current issue of Jane Austen's Regency World.
'The Prettiest English China' is coming up in the July/August issue, and looks at the manufacture of English porcelain in places like Worcester, Bristol and London.
