Description: The most comprehensive book for collectors of Dartington glass. To celebrate the 50th anniversary this year of Dartington glass we are signing copies of our book. 1967-2017 Linda and Stuart took over five years of research to complete this book. Almost A4 size,it is illustrated with seven hundred and twenty colour and black and white pictures on over two hundred pages.Each glass design has it's own name, reference number, picture, dimensions, production dates and the colours it was made in. Many designs have their own advertising pun names,these are listed in italics.In addition to the design names marketed by the company,this book includes drawings of designs which were rejected and photographs of designs which were produced as samples, but which did not go into production.There is so much more additional information in this book that it is impossible to list or describe it all here.This book also incorporates one hundred glass designs produced for Wedgwood crystal designed by Frank Thrower during the period of 1982-1987. The factory opened in 1967 and Frank Thrower was the main designer until his death in 1987.This is the period of glass production that this book covers and it also includes the other designers of that period at Dartington Glass. Invaluable to collectors,carbooters and the trade,this book contains everything you need to know about Dartington Glass, which is tipped to emulate the success of Whitefriars Glass for collectors. The picture shows pages 46 and 47 also the apothecary range in Bristol /Devon blue colour which have become quite scarce to find and indicates how this book follows the complete production of Frank Thrower and Dartington Glass, and not the usual snapshot approach of other publications.Every Dartington and Wedgwood design is set out in chronological order,and is easily accessed through the three comprehensive indexes.This book is now out of print .We are posting first class royal mail .
