About the author

Carol Marple has been interested in antique china since the early 1950s. Intrigued by unusual molds and handpainted decoration, she started a special collection including R.S. Prussia ceramics. Since retiring from Syntex, Leland Marple has turned his analytical skills toward learning more about Carol's china collection, and about R.S. Prussia in general. Generating factual information about the china to be found by collectors today has been a multi-year project.
