Description
An illustrated introduction to the Art Deco pottery by Clarice Cliff, written by an expert in the field.
There are few pieces of pottery more recognisable than those designed by Clarice Cliff. For many the epitome of Art Deco, characterised by bold colour and lines, geometric shapes, and stylised representations of the countryside, Clarice Cliff's 'bizarre' pottery is collected all over the world.
Employed in The Potteries from the age of thirteen, Clarice was talented and resourceful, and in 1927 she was given her own studio at the Newport Pottery where, for the next twelve years, she produced a range of sought-after designs that have become icons of the age.
Using a wealth of colour illustrations, Will Farmer traces the story of Clarice Cliff and the pottery that she created.
