A beautifully designed gift book devoted to the work of Christopher Dresser, one of the most influential British designers, whose work continues to resonate today. Christopher Dresser (1834-1904) is one of the most influential British designers of all time and is widely regarded as Britain's first independent industrial designer. More than a century later, his works still look remarkably modern. Like his contemporary William Morris, Dresser advocated for an honesty of materials, but unlike Morris he fully embraced industrial techniques, designing for the growing consumer market. Through Dresser's fascination with the arts of Japan and his strong belief in Owen Jones's principle that ornament should be geometrical in form, his designs look surprisingly minimal for their time. Affordable, well designed, functional, and commercially successful, the objects that Dresser designedâwallpapers, textiles, carpets, ceramics, furniture, and most famously, metalworkâwere industrially produced by manufacturers across the United States, United Kingdom, and continental Europe. This compact, beautifully produced book on Dresser's work begins with a brief introduction to his life and work before presenting seventy-five of his most important pieces, each accompanied by an in-depth caption. Christopher Dresser is for anyone interested in modern design.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book follows the phenomenal rise of Daniel Cottier (183891) from an apprentice coach painter in Glasgow to the founder of Cottier & Co., a fine and decorative arts business with branches on three continents. This gifted designer and brilliant art entrepreneur keenly spotted one of the key aspects of late 19th-century bourgeois cultureits focus on family, home, and churchand seized the artistic and commercial opportunities of the building and decorating boom that it brought about. Cottier was a proponent of Aestheticism, an international trend in the history of culture, art, and design from about 1860 to 1900: he understood the eras desire for beauty and realized the economic possibilities of its commoditization. Beyond biography, therefore, this book illuminates a significant event of late 19th-century cultural history Aestheticisms cult of beauty meeting with the bourgeoisies financial ability to possess it. The story of an innovative designer and farsighted art entrepreneur and the important role he played in the dissemination of 19th-century Aestheticism Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
