by Titus Eliens, Waanders Uitgevers, Zwolle, 2002.
”This publication has appeared on the occasion of the exhibition
Modern Glass in the Netherlands 1880-1940
in the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag from May 25th through September 22nd, 2002.   [This book] offers a comprehensive view of late 19th and early 20th century advances in Dutch art glass, one of the most important areas of Dutch design in the pre-war period.  It gives a detailed account of the leading producers like Leerdam, the United Glassworks of Maastricht and Glashuis Muller in Amsterdam, as well as of the artists who produced designs for them:  men like H.P. Berlage, K.P.C. de Bazel, Chris Lanooy, Chris Lebeau and A.D. Copier.  Needless to say, the book also contains many illustrations not only of Serica and Unica, but also of the more everyday utilitarian glass they designed.”
