This is an important guide to the marks and monograms of 2,000 designers and makers of decorative arts, 1880-1960. Brought back into print by popular demand, this book illustrates the marks of around 2,000 designers and makers in the decorative arts in Britain, Europe and North America, and includes ceramics, glass, metalwork and jewellery, graphics, furniture and textiles. It takes in the main artistic movements of the time - the Aesthetic Movement, the Arts & Crafts Movement, Art Nouveau, Vienna Secession, Art Deco, De Stijl and the Bauhaus. "Marks & Monograms" features illustrations of each mark - many of which are not represented in other reference works - accompanied by a brief discourse on each designer or manufacturer, making the book an invaluable directory of prominent European and American decorative artists.
