With over 500 dazzling color photos and an engaging text, this book explores the brilliantly colorful and useful fused glass tableware and ornaments produced by the Peggy Karr Glass company of New Jersey beginning in 1987. This book is a comprehensive guide to every fused glass pattern the company has made and marketed internationally to boutiques and gift shops. Included among the glassware items displayed are plates, bowls, trays, platters, clocks, ornaments, and roundels decorated in a vast array of imaginative designs including flowers, animals, fish, still life imagery, seasonal motifs, special order patterns, and more.
The text provides a fascinating history of the artist and the company she developed, the designers she hired, and a chronological review of the fused glass created and gathered by a ever expanding, loyal collector base. Also included are a rarity scale, listings of accessories produced along with the fused glass, and a Pattern Index. Everyone with a passion for beautiful glass will want to own this book.
