Book Overview
Charleton decoration on glass and porcelain was prolific in the 1940s and 1950s on blanks from American and European manufacturers. Charleton hand-painted landscapes, fruit, flowers, geometric patterns and abstracts are displayed here in over 600 stunning images, many never before appearing in print. Histories of the decorating company (Abels, Wasserberg & Company of New York) and the firms that provided the blanks appear along with an extensive bibliography and current values. This book is a useful reference to identify decorated glass and porcelain and will inspire searches for its distinctive decorations.

Mystery Solved
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This is a fabulous book! It shows so many Charleton examples and identifies the various artists. It helped me identify designs that I had wondered what they were and where they came from. It's very thorough, detailed information, and a beautiful book to look at. I refer to it often and go through it every time I research a rose pattern that isn't Dresden.
