WMF IKORA, MYRA GLASER - GLASS, WMF IKORA WMF IKORA & MYRA GLASER Unika und serielles Kunstglas der 1920er bis 1950er Jahre
, Arnoldsche, 2003, Bound, frontispice, 230 x 305mm., 200pp., beautifully illustrated. Text in English and German ISBN 9783897901896.
With contemporary advertising and sales catalogues as its sources, the present publication represents the first exhaustive survey of the Ikora and Myra lines in glass produced between the 1920s and 1950s by the Wurttembergische Metallwarenfabrik AG (WMF) at Geislingen/Steige. At the instigation of the then WMF director general, Hugo Debach, WMF had been making high-quality art glass (called ???Unika pieces?? , indicating that they were one-of-a-kind) as well as lines in mass-produced art glass (Ikora and Myra). First presented to the public to great acclaim at the Wurttembergisches Landesmuseum in Stuttgart by museum director G. E. Pazaurek, these pieces are now much sought after as valuable collector?? s items. The present publication not only deals exhaustively with the history of this glass but also provides aficionados and collectors of Ikora and Myra glass for the first time with a complete catalogue of WMF products. The availability of this information makes it possible, first, to distinguish from the original later glass made in imitation of WMF glass by rival competitors and, second, to identify accurately each piece of Ikora or Myra glass. Hundreds of illustrations showing Ikora and Myra glass as well as explanatory texts written by distinguished specialists in this hitherto insufficiently published field make the present book a standard work that will be indispensable to collectors and lovers of glass alike. New book. Text in English and German.
