Stevens and Williams Northwood Pull-up Glass Vase
Stevens and Williams Northwood Pull-up Glass Vase. Stunning piece of glass here folks! A wonderful cranberry / pink, and orange pull-up decor over opal glass, satin finish with a box-pleated rim. The base has three applied chamfor glass frosted glass feet.
One of the feet has a small chip as shown in the last photo. The work on this piece is amazing, quite a rare piece of glass, in a lovely classical shape. In 1885 John Northwood received a patent for his "Pull-up" Machine. Northwood was Stevens and Williams' "Works & Artistic Manger" form 1862 until 1901. By 1887 Stevens and William has dozens of Pull-up glass designs.
John Northwood died in 1902 at the age of 65, and it marked the end of what is known as Stevens and Williams Fancy Glass Period. Beautifully polished pontil as expected on the base. Overall a superb quality example of Victorian ingenuity and glass craftsmanship at it's finest. Thanks for looking, please ask questions, good luck!
