Arts and Artisans, At Home and Abroad: With Sketches of the Progress of Foreign Manufactures is a book written by Jelinger Cookson Symons and published in 1839. The book is a comprehensive study of the arts and crafts industry both in the United Kingdom and abroad, including the progress of foreign manufacturing industries. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different aspect of the arts and crafts industry. The first section provides an overview of the industry in the United Kingdom, including the history of various crafts and the current state of the industry. The subsequent sections focus on specific crafts, such as pottery, glassmaking, and weaving, and provide detailed information on the techniques, materials, and tools used in each craft.The latter part of the book focuses on the progress of foreign manufacturing industries, with particular emphasis on France, Belgium, and Germany. Symons provides detailed descriptions of the manufacturing processes used in these countries, as well as the products produced and their quality.Throughout the book, Symons provides numerous illustrations and sketches to accompany his descriptions, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the arts and crafts industry in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
