This book sheds new light on Delft pottery from the 17th and 18th centuries. During this period, the Delft pottery industry took off, under the strong influence of a changing world. Delft potters were seen as true innovators.

Today, ceramics is experiencing another heyday. A new vanguard of Dutch makers is rediscovering the age-old craft and taking a fresh look at the material and its significance. Pioneering Ceramics zooms in on innovation within the ceramic craft.

The basic recipe of ceramics has hardly changed over the centuries, but the world in which ceramics are made has. The publication takes a closer look at similarities and differences between pioneering makers then and now.

Text in English and Dutch. 50 colour illustrations.
