The designs were all executed in lemon, moon, and white gold leaf, both oil and water gilded with soft blue polychromes.

From Golden Glass: Verre Eglomisé, a book that brings the reader into the glittering world of Miriam Ellner, the foremost practitioner of verre églomisé, the ancient process of gilding precious metals on the reverse side of glass, etching in a design, and setting it off with color.

Two bold tapestry variations by Jerome and Evelyn Ackerman. The first, named for the year of its design, OT 66 combined a series of blocks and stripes and was available in five color palettes. The second tapestry, Moonscape, was inspired by Neil Armstrong's 1969 moonwalk.

From our new release, Evelyn and Jerome Ackerman: California Mid-Century Designers, on the prolific artist-couple were central to the development of mid-century design in Southern California. They combined modernist craft—in weaving, carving, ceramics, tapestries, hookings, and mosaics—and made it accessible to the middle class.
