Lady Charlotte Schreiber's journals is a 1911 London and New York memoir by Charlotte Guest, edited by Montague Guest and Egan Mew, recording her collecting of ceramics and antiques across Europe from 1869 to 1885. Its plates are black-and-white photographs, many rotated on the page, of teapots, porcelain figures, pierced openwork vessels and enamelled boxes. A designer could draw on their dense, sharply lit studio views of ceramic forms, glazes and decorative patterns.
