Jydepotten Vort Lands Aeldste Haandvaerk

Near fine 1924 edition in torn glassine wrap with a letter on George Jensen headed paper, tipped in, presenting the book to the British potter Harry Horlock-Stringer who worked at the old Fulham Pottery in the 1950s and Taggs Yard in Barnes, south-west London. A very nice copy. Stringer's work made hims friends from across the world including many leading potters and lay enthusiasts such as the actor Ginger Rogers. Stringer experimented with his own glazes and firing techniques, and wrote a book on Raku, becoming a Fellow of the Craft Potters Association, editing the association's journal for a time and exhibiting widely as well as lecturing at home and abroad.
