Description: TREASURY OF SATSUMA by Sandra Andacht, Wallace-Homestead Book Co., IA, 1981. Profusely illustrated in color and black-and-white, this early out-of-print book provides a comprehensive survey of Satsuma porcelain including history, makers, and marks. 246 photographs with complete in-depth captions identify over 300 examples of this ware. In addition to the superb photography, the narrative in this book is extremely rich and covers by chapter: Historical Background; Tea and Cha No Yu; Prominent Westerners; Satsuma Wares; Potting and Decoration; The Awaji School; The Kyoto School; The Tokyo School and the Moderns; Satsuma Decorated Blanks; The Mon and Other Marks; Comparison Study and Value Determination; Satsuma Style; Appendix (Zodiacal Cycle and Year Periods, Marks Section, Motifs); Glossary; Bibliography; and Index. One of the leading authoritative references on the subject, this book is invaluable and would make a fine addition to the permanent reference library of the collector, dealer, or historian of Satsuma porcelain. 8.75” x 11.25” color-imprinted hardback in very good condition. 160 pages.
