Abstract

The early researches on platinum carried out by a number of distinguished European chemists were virtually contemporary with the first scientific studies of porcelain and its decoration. The author traces the sequence of these investigations leading to the application of platinum to provide a brilliant and permanent metallic lustre to porcelain and later to the less expensive earthenware.
