The very first, beautifully illustrated guide to some of the most sought-after portable Art Deco design
Rodney Capstick-Dale has collected Art Deco extensively since
the late 1960s and is well known in this field. He co-founded the
original Albemarle Gallery, London, in 1987, where his interest in
modern British art focused on early abstract painting of the 1920s
and 1930s.
Diana Capstick-Dale trained as a graphic designer in Lausanne
before completing an MA degree in stage design at the Central
School of Speech and Drama in London and working as a set and
costume designer.
