Pottery, Modern Wares 1920-1960 by Leslie Pina
Pottery, Modern Wares 1920-1960 by Leslie Pina
This handsome new book explores production pottery, the factory-made and hand-decorated wares produced by selected American and European companies that are of special interest to collectors. Familiar firms such as Cowan, Susie Cooper, Clarice Cliff and Roseville Futura made this modern pottery, as did old favorites such as Homer Laughlin's Fiesta, Russel Wright's American Modern, and firms with lesser-known names. Museums are already exhibiting these attractive, useful wares yet they can still be found at sales. 581 color photographs of the wares, details and maker's marks together with essays on the companies and designers, plus a bibliography, index and price guide make this book a necessary new reference for pottery collectors, historians and dealers.
Includes Cowan, Ohio, Roseville Futura, Weller, Encaustic, Rookwood, Laughlin, Fiesta, Glidden, Brastoff, California, Carlton, Wilton, Wedwood, Wm, Adams, Burgess, Leigh, Doulton, Cooper, Cliff, Ridgway, Longwy, Czech, and more!
