Porcelain Repair and Restoration
Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

With this book in hand even inexperience amateurs can confidently embark on porcelain restoration. Drawing on his wide experience as both a teacher and a restorer of porcelain, Nigel Williams explains step by step how to achieve excellent results with a variety of techniques. The would-be restorer is made aware of the many options open and encouraged to discover which technique suits his individual taste.

Each stage in the process of repairing and restoring porcelain is illustrated with photographs and explanatory line-drawings, which include diagrams showing the function and use of specialist tools.
