Harry Powell for James Powell and Sons, Whitefriars, an Arts and Crafts wine glass, circa 1880, plain conical 'Martini' form, on slender stem and shallow conical foot, 12.5cm highNote: the simplicity and elegance of this design is typical of Powell's innovative reaction to taste and artistic trend in the late 19th century; a design which 45 years later became adopted as the Martini cocktail glass, first introduced at the 1925 Paris Exhibition, and one which continues to be a timeless staple of classic glassware.
Northwood for Thomas Webb and Sons, an Aesthetic Movement / Gothic Revival engraved pale pink glass vase, circa 1870, optic wrythen banded bulbous beaker form, point engraved and etched with a band of naturalistic wildflowers, above a Gothic foliate band, polished pontil, 11cm highNote: the form and quality of the glass is typical of the major Arts and Crafts manufacturers, most notably James Powell and Sons at the Whitefriars works, which this vase closely resembles, in terms of the shape, optic moulding and the quality of the pontil. However, Thomas Webb in Stourbridge and also John Walsh Walsh in Birmingham produced similar quality glass in the Arts and Crafts style, with Webb manufacturing a wider range of colours and decorative patterns. Webb is also known to have collaborated with the engraving firm of John Northwood, also in Stourbridge, who almost certainly executed the applied decoration on this piece which combines the transitional styles of Aesthetic Movement and Gothic, both popular at the time.
