Pottery decoration under the glaze
A 1880 Cincinnati publication by M. Louise McLaughlin on pottery decoration under the glaze, aimed at American ceramic painters and amateurs. Its pictures are chapter-opening initials built from a tall decorative letter wrapped in grasses, wildflowers, and a butterfly, drawn in fine pen hatching with a light cream ground, a useful model for botanical framing and letterform-and-foliage lockups.
