Description:
Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas. We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry. Table of Contents This comprehensive work covers the history of the Denby Pottery and its products from 1809, when it was founded, to the present day. It relates the development of the factory, tells the stories of the families who have been associated with it and describes the work of the designers. Denby's designers included the skilled, slightly eccentric Horace Elliott; sculptor Donald Gilbert; and avant garde potter from the Vienna Werkstadt, Alice Teichtner; distinguished industrial designer, Kenneth Clark; the multi-talented Tibor Reich; and Gill Pemberton who created a new look in 1960s tableware. The principal in-house designers, Glyn Colledge and his father Albert, played a significant part in creating the 'Denby look' and the book describes in detail the importance of Glyn's creative and artistic contribution. The company's policy of employing the best designers and craftspeople has ensured its success for nearly two centuries, a success which looks set for the future.
