    pre-War glass (continued)

    The first of four W.M.F. Myra Kristal pieces from the same collection, a fine vase (shown slightly smaller than life-sized at left), shape J.201 in their catalogue

    Our reference:8782 Date:c 1930s
    Manufacturer:W.M.F. Origin:Germany
    UK Price:£ 155.00 US guide price:$ 248.00
    Dimensions:height 11 cm, weight 95 gm

    A second W.M.F. Myra Kristal vase (shown slightly smaller than life-sized at left), this one rather earlier, shape J.43 in their catalogue

    Our reference:8783 Date:c 1920s
    Manufacturer:W.M.F. Origin:Germany
    UK Price:£ 155.00 US guide price:$ 248.00
    Dimensions:height 10 cm, weight 90 gm
    Condition:very good

    A third W.M.F. Myra Kristal vase (shown roughly life-sized at left), another early shape, J.27 in their catalogue. Although smaller than the previous two vases, it is much heavier, and the metallic lustre is unusually strong

    Our reference:8784 Date:c 1920s
    Manufacturer:W.M.F. Origin:Germany
    UK Price:£ 155.00 US guide price:$ 248.00
    Dimensions:height 7.5 cm, weight 205 gm
    Condition:very good

    The final W.M.F. Myra Kristal piece, a shallow bowl (shown much smaller than life-sized, from various angles), another early shape, J.47 in their catalogue

    Our reference:8785 Date:c 1920s
    Manufacturer:W.M.F. Origin:Germany
    UK Price:£ 155.00 US guide price:$ 248.00
    Dimensions:diameter 11 cm, weight 120 gm
    Condition:very good

    Another W.M.F. piece, but this one is from their Ikora Glas range. A small lamp base (shown much smaller than life-sized, from various angles), the body of cased pink glass with included metal foil particles. The chromed metal electric fittings are original, with a standard bayonet fitting for the main bulb, and a small bayonet fitting for the (15W) internal pygmy bulb. The fitting has a number of pierced holes which allow the heat generated by the internal bulb to escape

    N.B. We are not offering the lamp already wired - it is illegal to do so, as it does not conform to modern UK safety regulations, and needs to be wired up by a professional electrician. It needs an earth connection, and should have a four-way switch (off, both bulbs on, internal bulb only, and main bulb only). Just to show what it looks like when lit internally (top right and bottom right) I have temporarily connected up the internal bulb, but the cable will have to be cut off before despatch

    Our reference:8790 Date:c 1930s
    Manufacturer:W.M.F. Origin:Germany
    UK Price:£ 100.00 US guide price:$ 160.00
    Dimensions:height 12 cm (20 cm including fittings), weight 855 gm
    Condition:see description regarding electrics, otherwise good

    A pretty Stuart pot (shown considerably smaller than life-sized at upper left), presumably for jam or honey as the lid is cut to accomodate a spoon. The pot is hand-enamelled with flowers, the base acid-etched 'Stuart' and 'ENGLAND' (see photo at lower right). The pot would have been produced sometime in the 1920s or 1930s

    Our reference:8768 Date:c 1920s/30s

    UK Price:£ 70.00 US guide price:$ 112.00
    Dimensions:height 10 cm, weight 390 gm
    Condition:very good

    Another pretty, 1920s or 1930s, Stuart pot (shown roughly life-sized at upper left), with the lid also cut to accomodate a spoon. This pot is hand-enamelled with thistles (a rare pattern). As with the previous pot, the base is acid-etched 'Stuart' and 'ENGLAND' (see photo at lower right)

    Our reference:8769 Date:c 1920s/30s
    Manufacturer:Stuart & Sons Origin:England
    UK Price:£ 70.00 US guide price:$ 112.00

    A third, and particularly pretty, Stuart pot from the 1920s or 1930s (shown much smaller than life-sized), the lid, as before, cut to accomodate a spoon. This pot is hand-enamelled with butterflies and tulips. Again, the base is acid-etched 'Stuart' and 'ENGLAND' (see photo at lower right)
