Written by G. J. Monson-Fitzjohn, noted historian and author of Quaint Signs of Olde Inns, the work traces the development of cups, goblets, tankards, mazers, drinking horns, jugs and ceremonial vessels across centuries of social and cultural change. Drawing upon archaeological discoveries, museum collections and historical records, the author combines scholarly research with an engaging narrative style that brings these remarkable objects and their makers vividly to life.\n                          \u003c\/div\u003e\n                          \u003cdiv\u003e\n                           \u003cbr\u003e\n                          \u003c\/div\u003e\n                          \u003cdiv\u003e\n                           The book explores not only the forms and craftsmanship of drinking vessels but also the customs, ceremonies and traditions that surrounded their use. From Neolithic clay cups and Roman tazze to Saxon horns, medieval mazers, leather bottles, pewter ware and elaborately decorated Georgian drinking vessels, Monson-Fitzjohn reveals how these objects reflected the tastes, status and daily lives of the people who used them. Numerous illustrations throughout the volume enhance the text, making it an invaluable reference for collectors, historians, antique enthusiasts and students of decorative arts.\n                          \u003c\/div\u003e\n                          \u003cdiv\u003e\n                           \u003cbr\u003e\n                          \u003c\/div\u003e\n                          \u003cdiv\u003e\n                           Published by Herbert Jenkins in 1927, this desirable first edition remains an important work on the history of domestic and ceremonial drinking ware.
