In 1603 the Conrade brothers obtained a monopoly for thirty years. Their products are strongly italianate. Though still run mainly by Italians or men of Italian extraction the potteries adopted more characteristically French styles in the mid 17th century. But a more potent influence came from the East. --- measurements: Overall: 4.5 x 30.5 x 25.4 cm (1 3/4 x 12 x 10 in.) state of the work: edition of the work: support materials: inscriptions: --- CURRENT EXHIBITIONS title: Year in Review (1963) opening date: 1963-11-27T05:00:00 Year in Review (1963).
