someone here knows this. Please post replies to this person privately (as
she may not be on the list) AND to ClayArt as I'd like to know this, too.

Marcia,
I have a bookk called
'
Pottery & Porcelain Tablewares by John P. Cushion
Published by William Morrow & Co. Inc. New York 1976
ISBN 0-688-03055-6
I don't know if it will fill all your needs, but it has a wonderful section
of simple drawings of handles and teapots etc., identifying the type & origins.
Good Luck, Mich
