From breakfast, through dinner and beyond, Nora Travis shows in
over 400 color photographs the beauty of Haviland China as it
graced the dining table in the Age of Elegance and continues to do
so today. A brief history of the Haviland family and their
contribution to the American way of life is included, along with
the production of Haviland china and its decoration. To enable the
reader to identify patterns, many have been cataloged by Schleiger
number, the current form of pattern identification used by most
Haviland matchers. There are also descriptions of the many pieces
and their proper usage for breakfast, luncheon, afternoon tea and a
15 course dinner. A listing of back marks and updated values are
also included.
