There are few pieces of pottery more recognisable than those designed by Clarice Cliff. For many the epitome of Art Deco, characterised by bold colour and lines, geometric shapes, and stylised representations of the countryside, Clarice Cliff's 'bizarre' pottery is collected all over the world. Using a wealth of colour illustrations, Will Farmer traces the story of Clarice Cliff and the pottery that she created. Employed in The Potteries from the age of thirteen, Clarice was talented and resourceful, and in 1927 she was given her own studio at the Newport Pottery where, for the next twelve years, she produced a range of sought-after designs that have become icons of the age.

Clarice Cliff is widely regarded as Britain's premier designer of Art Deco ceramics. Her hand-painted Bizarre ware, with its brilliant colors and innovative shapes, is avidly collected worldwide. Though all her distinctive pottery is popular, it is her floral designs that have always been the most commercially successful, both during her lifetime and today. Here, acknowledged expert Leonard Griffin explores Cliff's lifelong passion for flowers and its impact on her work, showing how many of her designs - her Crocus, Latona florals, her 1934 My Garden - were inspired by that love.
