shop windows

(see home page for when shop windows were last updated)

  • new arrivals: a new feature, designed to save time for our regular customers, it shows new acquisitions only in all categories (unsold pieces will be transferred to one of the main shop windows next time we update)

  • before 1900: hand-blown items, mostly (but not exclusively) 19th Century British and Bohemian. This window will include late 18th & early 19th Century English tableware, the occasional mid 19th Century paperweight, and products of such manufacturers as Thomas Webb & Sons, James Powell & Sons, Moser and early Loetz.

  • pre-War: more hand-blown glass, mostly of European origin, from 1900 up to and including World War II (including Art Nouveau and all Art Deco items). This is where to look for items from Monart, Schneider, Legras, Loetz, Gray-Stan, Powell etc.

  • post-War: hand-blown glass from the end of World War II right up to today, including 1950s & 60s Murano, Whitefriars, Stuart & Sons, Scottish glass from Vasart, Strathearn etc., and some more modern art glass.

  • pressed glass: pressed glass only, ranging from mid-to-late 19th Century English items (from Sowerby, Greener & Co, George Davidson and others), up to Czechoslovakian Art Deco and Lalique.

    Please Note: The offer price for each item is the UK price, in £ Sterling.

    The US guide price is included only for the benefit of non-UK customers who may be more familiar with the value of the $US relative to their own currency, and is calculated at the rate of $US 1.60 to the £ Sterling (which may not be the correct exchange rate at the time of completion of a transaction).
