This publication the correct & safe method for removing stains & blemishes from all types of antique ceramics, pottery, porcelain, & china as used by museums around the World.

 
I often used to find antique ceramics that would have been a bargain had it not been for the staining that made them so unsightly and unsaleable. I now relish finding badly stained ceramics at knock down prices because using this simple method I can remove the stains & sell the items at their true values.

 
This method uses a readily available & cheap household solution and the transformation is amazing. Just allow your ceramic item to soak in the solution for a week or so & follow the simple steps in the ebook & you will be amazed at the difference!

 
Gone are the brown stains from under the glaze, and the ground on dirt. What you are left with is a ceramic object in pristine condition that you can then sell on for many times the price you paid for it.

 
This method is totally safe for all kinds of ceramics, soft paste, hard paste, chinese export, stoneware, pearlware, creamware, and everything else! It is the method used by museums around the World and is completely non destructive – DO NOT EVER USE CHLORINE OR HOUSEHOLD BLEACH!

 
This also covers basic restoration techniques, including replacing missing parts, colour matching, and much more.

British Studio Pottery

Identification & Valuation

This book has been written to fill a large gap in this underrated and virtually unexplored field of antiques and collectables.

It is possible to buy books identifying almost every potter who ever worked, and books of the better collections representing the absolute pinnacle of the potting World.

Until now however, there has been nothing to pull all of the information together in a useful & practical way. What is the point of knowing who made a piece of pottery, if you can’t sort the wheat from the chaff, and how can you have the confidence to buy a pot if you have no idea of its true worth?

This book has been produced in response to exactly this problem, and addresses the issue by providing comprehensive details on a potters history, style, marks, influences, types of clays & forms of decoration, and, most importantly, an accurate indication of price.

There are almost 200 highly rated potters covered, some you will have heard of like Bernard Leach, Hans Coper, etc, and others that you probably haven’t such as Heber Matthews, Gordon Baldwin, William Newland, and dozens more.

It is hard to believe, in an area of collecting where pieces often realise Hundreds, Thousands, and sometimes Tens of Thousands of Pounds, that good pieces are still picked up at car boot sales, charity shops, and flea markets for pennies, but this is exactly what happens every day of the week.

Due in part to a general lack of understanding, and perpetuated by a lack of useful publications on the subject, studio pottery represents one of the great missed opportunities in the antiques world. Whilst the rest of the trade arrive at the car boot sales at 6-00 in the morning and attack the stalls like vultures, I’ve turned up at dinnertime and still found really good bargains just sitting there. No one even bothers to look at them because they don’t know what they’re looking at!

Obviously, anyone who has a reasonable understanding of what actually makes a piece of studio pottery collectable, stands to benefit greatly from this fortunate situation.

Prices have been painstakingly collected from specialist auctions, galleries, fairs, and even the potters themselves, and the work of many of them can realise Hundreds and even Thousands of pounds (incidentally the World Record Price for a piece by Hans Coper is £75,000 – I also know someone who bought a £14,000 Hans Coper pot for 50p at a car boot sale!)

Buy this book and take advantage of this situation while it still exists. It will take the trade a good few years to cotton on and catch up, so if you start looking now you will discover your fair share of the bargains – who knows, next weekend it might be you buying a £14,000 pot for 50p!

Please note that this is the ebook version of this title. It will be delivered by email within hours of your purchase and can be printed from your computer to create a paper copy that you can carry around with you.

Only £4.99 – There are no postage costs.

More importantly I went on to explain how I thought that this could be much better applied to the internet & auction sites, and it was using these very same methods that in 2006 I bought an antique Worcester jug, incorrectly described, for £100 on eBay – I subsequently sold it at Bonhams for a staggering £47,000!

I first produced this ebook in 2003 but decided at the time not to release it. Then in 2006, & using exactly the same methods outlined in the ebook I found a Worcester Wigornia Creamer on eBay for £100 – it later sold at Bonhams in London for £46,800.

 
This publication explains exactly the thought process of how I searched, & still search on eBay, to find the hidden gems that other people miss.

 
These techniques will work for any kind of antique or collectable since they rely upon Human behaviour & psychology rather than on antiques knowledge itself, although clearly you need to have some idea about the items that you are searching for.

 
I have used these methods to find a large number of bargain antique ceramics (since thats the area that I am interested in), and I now use these search techniques only & completely forget about searching for items in the way that 99.9% of other online users do.

 
The methods are extremely simple, do not require rocket surgery type intelligence, and will yield results that you didn’t think possible.

 
If you have spent any time on eBay then you will have found yourself watching an item that you thought you were going to get at a bargain price only to see it snatched away at the last minute, or the price bid up far too high – with this method it doesn’t happen because no one else will find the items that you do.

 
The ebook also reveals some search engine fundamentals that will help you in filtering your results, conducting multiple searches at the same time, and other useful online tips & tricks that will save you time & effort & will help you to search more efficiently & find far more items at bargain prices.

 
The techniques work on all online platforms, not just eBay.

 
If you want to find bargain antiques online then you really need to get a copy of this ebook – at only £9.99 it will pay for itself many times over.

When I first started collecting I always used to find that I would come across antique silver items at antiques fairs and in shops, and I would not be able to work out the date of an item and consequently whether or not I thought it was priced correctly, since I didn’t have a hallmark book with me.

Eventually, frustrated with poorly labelled items and sometimes blatantly misdescribed pieces, I came up with a simple & easy to remember method of roughly estimating an items age from it’s hallmarks that I could apply to almost any piece of English silver.

This ebook is only 5 A4 pages long, but it gets right to the point. There is no waffle or padding, just the essentials of a few pieces of information that you need to remember to be able to quickly & fairly accurately date any item.

I have found this to be an invaluable aid & so offer it at the extremely low price of just £3.99, with an instant download once you have purchased it.

If you want to be able to quickly make a decision on whether or not to buy then this information is priceless.
