Susie Cooper (October 29, 1902 – July 28, 1995) was a prolific ceramic designer working in the Stoke-on-Trent pottery industries from the 1920s to the 1980s. Clarice Cliff (January 20, 1899 - October 23, 1972), was a ceramic artist active from 1922 to 1940. See:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarice_Cliff and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzie_Cooper%2C_Ceramic_artist and http://www.collectics.com/education_cliff.html and http://www.antiquefairs.co.uk/info-art-deco.html Hope the links are useful!

It is a bit difficult to describe.......The term Art Deco is used to describe stylistic changes that occurred to nearly every visual medium in the interwar years and for a number of years before and after. It covers "modern" approaches to architecture, fashion, art, graphics and film. The new aesthetics were also found in industrial design, furniture, transport, communications, and in household items. The style, which was universal, represents a move away from traditional values and was characterised by clean, geometric and elegant lines that replaced the excessive decoration of previous styles. It drew its inspiration from many cultures but is generally regarded as having its origins in pre-WWI Europe. Its introduction occurred concurrently with massive changes in technology that saw the introduction of new materials and manufacturing techniques that allowed goods and items to become available to the masses. I have a lamp that was or is classified as an Art Deco piece and was a piece that was purchased in Paris by an individual in the 1930s but not sure of the date.. I also have a vase that is considered an Art Deco vase....

that's a great question...i am totally stumped, if you've tried google and haven't come up with anything, you may want to check with your local art museum's curator, they are paid to know such things...let them earn their pay this month.
