Book excerpt: California Faience at once invokes both the familiar and the exotic. It is a name fortuitously chosen for a ceramic enterprise that operated in Berkeley, California, from 1913 to 1959. Its wares found homes in humble cottages and the great castle of William Randolph Hearst. This book, for the first time, presents a comprehensive overview of the history and wares of California Faience and related West Coast Porcelain, Potlatch Pottery and Deer Creek Pottery. With over 700 illustrations, the beauty of the vessels, tiles and sculptures from this studio are displayed in full glory.
