{"product_id":"a-tea-caddy-collection-mark-bramble-9780764354571","title":"A Tea Caddy Collection","description":"Through photographs and anecdotes, Broadway author and director Mark Bramble presents the vast collection of antique tea caddies he and his late mother assembled over more than 5 decades of collecting. Explore the historical and societal atmospheres that engendered such varied styles of caddies and how interest in these treasures, created for storing tea, coincided with the competitive search for the formula to make \"true\" porcelain. The history behind the tea caddy reinforces the overlap between art and functionality, and how the culture of artistic creation is a random blend of geography, sociology, talent, and luck. In this generous volume, collectors are treated to an endearing reflection on a lifetime hobby of mother and son, whose collection encompasses centuries of worldwide artistic creation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Bramble\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0764354574\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764354571\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.70w x 0.90d","brand":"Mark Bramble","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48441324634367,"sku":"9780764354571","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0db12aec-1e6e-4a26-be1d-3edd2652a9bf.jpg?v=1777190169","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-tea-caddy-collection-mark-bramble-9780764354571","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
