Fonts, statues, church spires, gutters, memorial urns and even coffins: throughout history, lead has proved itself worthy of an endless number of uses. Originally published in 1909, Lawrence Weaver’s survey charts both the evolving history and the artistry surrounding English leadwork, from ancient times to the nineteenth century. Filled with photographs and drawings of many remarkable examples, English Leadwork is a comprehensive and informative guide to the craftsmanship that helped shape a country.
