Summary The bold, colourful hand-painted designs that Clarice Cliff combined with outrageous, French-inspired Art Deco shapes evoke all the uninhibited spirit of the 1920s and 30s. She added a new style to pottery decoration: landscapes overflowing with cottages embracing rainbow-coloured trees. In these she transcended Art Deco to give rise to a very British genre of pottery decoration
