Book Description

Special Collections: Inherited, Acquired, Frequently used, Rarely used, Without fault:

A series of five books produced in response to the close examination of two individual collections of crockery. Through discussion the origin, usage, and distinguishing characteristics of each piece were recorded. Using this data, the crockery was placed into one of five categories and a single colour and pattern allocated to each. The concertina books are formed of circular self-adhesive labels to visually represent each item, supported by typewritten details on the reverse.
