About this product

Product Information

Highly collectible household objects designed and signed by name artists of the 1950s and 1960s are presented here. The artists have become well known: Georges Briard, Sascha Brastoff, Mark Bellaire, Frances and Michael Higgins, and others. The modern styles of hundreds of glass tumblers, ash trays, and household accessories that are artist signed (often in gold) have become popular again, 40 years after they were made. The leading designer and marketing wizard of this style is Georges Briard about whom much written here, and many of his designs are pictured, along with much work by the other prominent featured artists. Here is mid-century design at its most popular level.

  • This is a design nightmare. Don't pay more than $10 for it.

    The poor design does not do justice to the beautiful glass, ceramics and enamelware assembled within the book. It stands as yet another collector-turned-publisher/writer publishing venture with little regard for artistry, clarity, organization or writing. Collectors look for clear marks and designs to identify their vintage piece. This is the most disappointing aspect of Pina’s book. There are ample photos, obtained from a variety of sources. But there is no consistency in size, set-up or background. There are murky black-and-white photos, gigantic enlargements and poor reproductions. To add to this lack of clarity, photos are presented randomly with no regard to pattern or year. The result is a confusing hodge podge that will likely irritate many a reader looking for a quick reference. ...

  • Good overview.

    Nice book with great photos. There are some odd, out of focus shots but it’s a good overview of the designer art glass of the period.
