Condition: Good. The original boards without a DJ and pictorial laminated boards are a little shelf rubbed and edge worn/bumped. This book was read and enjoyed but is still overall good. The book has no inscriptions and the binding is excellent.
Susan Williams-Ellis and her husband started what became Portmeirion Pottery in Stoke in 1960. Neither of them knew anything about pottery manufacture. Mistakes and disasters followed inevitably but Susan's determination and brilliance as designer gradually inspired and motivated others to believe in her creations, resulting in the company's success. This is the story told here. The colour pictures illustrate the range and originality of Susan's many designs.
