A 1886 London reference by William Chaffers, cataloguing marks and monograms on European and Oriental pottery and porcelain with notes on each manufactory, for collectors and specialists. The pictures are small line drawings of a plate with wave-like rims, a column of stylised knots and bows, a symmetrical Renaissance-style band with urns and scrolls, and a heart-shaped monogram with dates, useful for designers seeking historic ceramic motifs and mark devices.
