The captivating biography of one of the most important designers of
the twentieth century - adapted for Sky Cinema starring Phoebe
Dynevor, Matthew Goode and David Morrissey Clarice Cliff was one of
the most prominent ceramic designers of the twentieth century. Born
in 1899 in the Staffordshire Potteries, she started work as just
another factory girl, but by 1928 had launched her own range of
pottery, 'Bizarre'. A 'gargantuan feast of colour', it blazed a
trail through the homes of inter-war Britain. But if Clarice
Cliff's rise from apprentice gilder to art director was remarkable
- and all the more so for her being a woman - it was not without
its tensions; for years she conducted a secret relationship with
her married boss. Fusing art, design and industry and vividly
conveying the texture of women's lives between the wars, this is a
compelling study of the complex, talented woman whose work is for
many the epitome of art deco.
