English Ceramics Two Hundred and Fifty Years of Collecting at Rode

Rode Hall, a fine Georgian country house in Cheshire, England, is home to an important collection of English porcelain and pottery amassed by successive generations of the Wilbraham family since the mid-eighteenth century. This is the first comprehensive study of this historic collection. The book places the Rode Collection in the wider context of the lives and customs of the Wilbraham family whose remarkable history and elite position in eighteenth century society delineates the development of England's ceramic industry. Lavishly illustrated, this volume provides a vivid record of a unique collection.McKeown, Julie is the author of 'English Ceramics Two Hundred and Fifty Years of Collecting at Rode', published 2007 under ISBN 9780856676314 and ISBN 0856676314.
