Geoffrey Baxter for Whitefriars, a willow glass ‘Shoulder’ vase, pattern no.9678, with moulded textured finish to one side22.5 x 20.5 x 6cmA slight scuff to shoulder on both sides, otherwise good. Image Nos. 1, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are more accurate representations of colour.

A Guild of Handicraft Ltd silver mounted decanter designed by Charles Robert Ashbee, the Whitefriars green glass of ovoid form with slender, tapering neck mounted with hinged collar and cover, with sweeping sinuous handle and hinged brace, the cover mounted with cabochon inset scrolling finial London 1993, 18cm deep, 23cm high Literature: An identical decanter is illustrated: Alan Crawford, C.R. Ashbee Architect, Designer & Romantic Socialist, London, 1985, p. 331, fig. 166. Crawford recounts Ashbee's interest in three broken, bulbous bottles of green glass, unearthed in the course of the clearing of the building site for the Magpie and Stump in 1893. In his romantic enthusiasm for the archaeology of the Chelsea area he kept the bottles, noting 'it was doubtless bottles of that shape....good solid glass, from which Falstaff and his worthies drank their sack'. Four years later, James Powell and Sons produced more refined versions of the bottles in thinner glass which Ashbee then cased in silver. At the time of production, the cost of these pieces was a mere GB3 or GB4 owing to the small amount of silver involved. Very good condition, silver a little tarnished but no real faults noted.PLEASE NOTE:- Prospective buyers are strongly advised to examine personally any goods in which they are interested BEFORE the auction takes place.

Harry Powell for James Powell and Sons, Whitefriars, an Arts and Crafts apple green wine glass, circa 1875, the plain rounded bowl on a cylindrical stem and conical foot, in a rare possibly experimental uranium colourway, 10.5cm highNote: Powell started using uranium to make glass from the 1830s, creating a service for Queen Victoria in a yellow Topaz colour. The company continued to experiment with different combinations of uranium and other oxides to produce variously coloured glass, including what became Alsatian blue and the blue and straw opal glass from 1877, developed by Harry Powell. It is likely this glass was produced during that time, if not earlier, reflecting the previous trend for Bohemian, rather than Venetian coloured glass. See: Evans, W. et al. 1995, Whitefriars Glass, p.50, for an illustrated example of this wine glass in a different opal colour.
