Pewter at Colonial Williamsburg.
- - -
By John D. Davis.Published by the University Press of New England in 2003.
The collection of British pewter at Colonial Williamsburg has been formed over the past seventy-five years and is remarkable for its breadth, illustrating the development of basic forms and types of decoration from the first decades of the seventeenth century through those of the nineteenth. Largely British, it also includes some American wares, though it does reflect the broad distribution of British pewter in America, especially in Virginia and the lower Chesapeake region, where there were relatively few practicing pewterers and where there was a decided dependence on imported pewter. This catalog is divided into sections based on use, including dining wares, drinking vessels, and religious objects.
Hardcover, 9"x11", 364 pages, 957 black & white illustrations, dust jacket. Fine.
