Description
Alan Caiger-Smith and the Legacy of Aldermaston Pottery is a unique insight into the life and work of a pioneering studio potter. This book features nearly 30 interviews with potters who worked at the Aldermaston Pottery, including previously unpublished accounts and photographs.
Through the stories of these potters, as well as Alan Caiger-Smith's own achievements, the book chronicles the 51-year history of the Aldermaston Pottery. The images play a crucial role in telling the story, providing a glimpse into a lost way of working that is rarely seen today.
This book fills a significant gap in the history of 20th century studio pottery, tracing the careers of the potters who worked at the Aldermaston Pottery and their contributions to the maiolica tradition. A valuable resource for collectors and enthusiasts of studio pottery, the book is a must-have for anyone interested in the subject.
