Antique Glass and China: a Guide for the Beginning Collector [Hardcover] Godden, Geoffrey A.

Description

Although this book is from 1966, its wisdom still rings true: start small and buy what you love. Godden advises that it’s better to buy an exquisite piece by a less well-known craftsman or manufacturer, which will end up costing less than a less-than-perfect item with a “sought after” name. The point of collecting is to surround yourself with objects that bring joy and beauty to your life.
