Purple Glass : 20th Century American & European Hardback
by Leslie Pina
Hardback
Description
Color is one of the most interesting qualities of glass, and many people collect according to color.
Purple Glass is a sample of various collectible glassware made in the United States and Europe.
Included are examples of Depression Era glass from American companies such as Tiffin, Fostoria, and Morgantown, to mid-century blown glass from Blenko; from Italian mid-century cased items to Scandinavian designer glass from Kosta, Orrefors, and Flygsfors.
While focusing exclusively on purple glass, this book is also a survey of 20th century glass, because each design was also produced in other colors.
More than 400 color photographs (including 80+ rare catalog pages for identification) and information on the 60 companies represented make this book essential for all glass collectors.
