Abstract
Yellow Faience, Flintware and Lustreware
In the 19th century, contacts between potteries around the Baltic Sea and the Sound were essential and frequent, but they remain almost entirely unrecorded. New styles, materials and glazes were shared among manufacturers in a variety of ways, mostly informally, directly and from person to person, or indirectly through exhibitions or in the form of illustrations, for example in price lists. The article discusses and compares pottery manufactured in the county of Scania in Sweden and on the Danish islands of Bornholm and Sjrelland, where various types of contact were clearly made. I look at issues concerning 19th century design trends and discuss established and potential communication routes that existed, or can reasonably be assumed to have existed, among the potteries.
