Book excerpt: The Lady Ludlow collection of English Porcelain forms one of the greatest assemblages of 18th century English Porcelain in the world. It comprises about five hundred pieces of Bow, Chelsea, Derby and Worcester porcelain, and from other factories, as well as some ancillary pieces that take the story of English porcelain into the early 19th century. Formed between the two world wars, it reflects both the taste of its time and the unrivaled buying opportunities that were available in what may now be seen as a time of plenty.
