Summary: A unique gift for people who enjoy coffee-table art
Review: Everyday Things: Glass is a beauteous celebration of its title substance and all the countless decorative and practical things that can be wrought with it - including cruets, canisters, inkwells, lanterns, pitchers, and paperweights. Gorgeous, full-color photographs fill every page with an artist's eye for elegance, while the prose text offers intensely researched, enlightening commentary about the specific history of countless glass objects of art and everyday use. Suzanne Slesin (Homestyle magazine editor-in-chief), Daniel Rozensztroch (Paris-based author), and Stafford Cliff (London-based author), and Marie-Pierre Morel (Paris-based, professional photographer) draw upon their many years of expertise to effectively collaborate with Everyday Things: Glass resulting in a visual compendium that takes commonplace things and turns them into elements of majesty Everyday Things: Glass is enthusiastically recommended as a unique and unusual gift for people who enjoy coffee-table art and photography books.
