Seller's Description:
As New, in original shipping box. Black cloth with black illus. dj; 384 pp. with 338 color and appx. 137 bw illus. This is a substantially revised edition of Arwas's previous book of the same title ( LJ 12/15/78). Outstanding color photographs of pieces from museums, galleries, and private collections have been added, increasing the illustrations by 75 percent. Many of the articles on manufacturers have been enlarged and updated to reflect current scholarship. The articles are well balanced, covering smaller firms but emphasizing such major firms as Tiffany and Lalique, and historical information on glass production and fakes, facsimiles of artists' signatures, and a glossary are also included. Highly recommended for decorative arts collections, particularly those having the earlier edition. (Constance Ashmore Fairchild, Univ. of Illinois Lib., Urbana-Champaign) "This book is the first to collect and evaluate the considerable amount of valuable research previously carried out on the glass producers of the period. All available information on the most important and a large number of lesser known but interesting glassworkers is here carefully weighed and presented, from the English cameo artists of the mid-nineteenth century to those glass designers and glasshouses of France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Bohemia, Germany, Austria, Italy, Sweden, the United States and Russia still producing at the outbreak of war in 1939." (dj) Includes a list of designers and makers, as well as discussions of fakes and forgeries and repairs and damaged items.
