Collectible Enameled Ware: American and European is a celebration of those vintage wares that humbly served in the kitchens and households of the past, but have since achieved status as highly sought-after antiques. It's not only American-made enameled ware that's creating such a stir.European enameled ware, with its vibrant colors and spectacular graphic designs, is also highly in demand. A concise text and over 375 color photographs with value ranges offer antiques dealers, collectors, and interior designers a close-up look at the beautiful examples of enameled ware produced throughout Europe and the United States between the late 1800s and 1940. Decorative patterns, floral graphic designs, one-of-a-kind items-these are but a few of the attributes that lead many collectors to think of antique enameled ware as relics of a lost art. AUTHOR: David Pikul is a retired teacher who now devotes full time to the family business, the Chuctanunda Antique Company of Amsterdam, New York. Ellen M. Plante is the author of several books on Victorian living and her articles have appeared in numerous national publications.
