Summary

The Doulton Lambeth Wares by Desmond Eyles is the classic reference book on the products of Royal Doulton's famous factory in London but the original edition has been out of print for many years. It is hoped that this new edition, revised by Louise Irvine, will be even more useful for collectors of nineteenth and twentieth-century Lambeth Wares. There are now more than 700 colour plates and 150 black and white illustrations featuring designs by leading studio artists, such as Tinworth, the Barlow sisters, Marshall, Pope and Butler, as well as many examples by lesser-known assistants. All the different types of Doulton Lambeth Wares are depicted in full colour, for example Silicon, Faience, Impasto, Marqueterie, Chine and Hunting Ware, so that collectors can identify pieces when they appear on the market.
