Practical instructions for painting on china, earthenware, glass and enamel : with analysis of vitrifiable colours
A practical manual of 1872 published in London by Lechertier, Barbe & Co., written by A. Lacroix for amateur and trade decorators working in china painting, enamel and glass staining. The single picture is a plain line engraving of a recumbent unicorn with a crown-like collar and a curled tail, resting on a flat oval base, showing the simple outlined style of Victorian technical manual figures that a designer could adapt for heraldic or decorative motifs on ceramics.
