English Glass by W A Thorpe Deputy Keeper in the Victoria & Albert Museum 1949 , Dustwrapper a bit tired,otherwise in good + condition.



303 pages. Lovely vintage book,primarily on the earlier forms of English glass,following through to the mid 1930s. As you would expect from a keeper at the V&A ,really thorough, beautifully written.

Some headings:- Middle Ages /Mr Jacob /Period of Monopolies /The Rise of English Crystal /Baroque style /The Baluster style /The Taste of rococo/Note for private collectors etc.
