Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
This is the 100th anniversary of the birth of British potter Clarice Cliff, and Griffin's book serves as both biography and overview of the work. Cliff, born in the pottery town of Tunsull, became one of the best known ceramists of her time. Her bold colorings, dominated by oranges and yellows, and her angular shapes helped define the Art Deco movement, and today her pieces are emminently collectible, commanding huge sums. Fans of Cliff will be delighted by the nearly 300 photos. Many are color pictures of the pieces, but there are also a number of interesting historical photographs. An index to all of Cliff's designs will be appreciated by collectors. A solid find for the 700 shelves. Ilene Cooper
