Book Description

September 1995
This work concentrates on the ceramics produced during the 1920s and 1930s throughout Britain, Europe, the USA and Japan. It provides explanations of the varied usage of terms such as art deco, modernism, art moderne and streamline style. Over 200 colour photographs illustrate objects, both useful and decorative, chosen for their appearance, their historical significance, or their potential appeal to 1990s collectors and practitioners.
