Please browse all 12 sets of photographs attached for size, weight and condition as they are self explanatory. Superb weight and feel. Despite being close to 100 years old, they would not look out of place in any modern environment. These crystal glasses have stood the test of time. George V was King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and Emperor of India, from 6 May 1910 until his death in 1936. Benjamin Richardson, born 1802, Stourbridge, Worcestershire, Eng. Died 1887, founder of one of the great English glass-manufacturing houses, who was instrumental in the introduction of modern glass-working methods to England. Richardson’s Stourbridge factory was the first in the country to have a threading machine for making filigree glass and the first to make mass-produced pressed glass tumblers. The factory pioneered in the use of pressing machines for decorating flint glass with relief ornaments. His firm also became one of the leaders in producing cameo glass for commercial sale. The blue-and-white Roman vase was considered one of the most beautiful pieces of glassware ever made and the finest surviving example of Roman cameo glass. The first successful replica of the vase was completed in 1876 by a former employee of Richardson’s, a local glassmaker named John Northwood q. , but it was not made for Richardson. Richardson is also remembered for his efforts to reduce the cost of manufacturing quality glassware, thus rendering it accessible to the general public. The Richardson family have a complex history. Richardson began at Hawkes & Co. But left & joined up with W. Richardson taking over Wordsley Flint Glassworks (fnd 1720). Richardson joined with Thomas Webb I (1804-69) to become Webb & Richardson. The Wordsley works became W. The works closed in 1852 despite success in the Great Exhibition, due to financial difficulties but reopened within a couple of years by Benjamin Richardson. He formed other partnerships; Hodgetts, Richardson & Pargetter (1836-69) Hodgetts, Richardson & Sons (1871-82) In 1887 his concerns were taken over by Benjamin Richardsons grandsons becoming H. It was acquired by Thomas Webb & Sons in 1930 & the firm was operated from the Denis glassworks which finally closed in the late 1960’s. The Richardson label was used until the 1970’s. Benjamin Richardsons energy & experimentation combined to the partnerships he formed led to the rebirth of English glass. This has earned him the title of’Father of the Glass trade’. The Richardsons had extensive influence, W. Richardson II manged the James Couper Glassworks. John Northwood, Philip Pargeter, John Thomas Bott, Alphonse-Eugene Lechevrel, Joseph Locke.

We have 2 sets listed and each has been photographed separately. This charming set of 4 Cambridge Glass hourglass form tumblers in yellow with the lovely Gloria etch pattern.

The glasses each stand 4 5/8″ tall with the widest diameter being slightly over 2 7/8″, a top diameter of 2 7/8 and a base diameter of 2 1/4.

Condition: These glasses are in very fine condition. There is no water damage to the inside and in fact appears to have either very rarely or never been used. Under very close inspection you can see occasional inclusion or straw mark (from the making), however overall these glasses are in outstanding very good.

For your perusal I have listed a very rare. Period antique late 18th / early 19th century heavy diamond cut and faceted Irish lead crystal port glasses of which because of their style and the techniques used in their overall presentation most probably originate from the Tyrone glassworks from between c1790 – c1810. Sets like these are very, very rare to find today in this particular condition. The style of these port glasses is very reminiscent of the rarest piece of Irish lead crystal glass known today, that being the Tyrone? Chalice which is purported to have been produced between 1790 – 1800. As you can see via the pictures listed of this set each glass was hand worked in heavy lead content crystal glass, the ovoid bodies topped with a smooth rim were heavily cut with a diamond facet configuration almost likened to a hob nail effect pattern the underside of each bowl was triple stepped cut, down to a octagon cut stem flaring to an octagon cut and faceted foot of which is of the slight lemon squeezer variety with a slightly hollowed base only the outer edge of the underside of the foot being cut. Each of the glasses all have signs of slight inclusions either carbon deposits or tiny air bubbles internally. Each of the glasses weight and dimensions are. 1 332g by 108mm x 73mm. 2 348g by 111mm x 74mm. 3 354g by 110mm x 75mm. 4 362g by 108mm x 74mm. 5 372g by 113mm x 73mm. 6 377g by 112mm x 75mm. General Condition of this very old Set is excellent with only one small rim chip to one glass which does not affect the top of the rim surface, the extreme high points to the body diamond cutting on all glasses have received over the years small chipping, this is to be expected with this type of cutting. If any item has a obvious fault then I have mentioned it. I ask that you read the description and examine the photos carefully. I will also just say that recently I took some detailed pictures of the set to an international Antiques Fair, to get an appraisal from a reputable dealer of such early Irish crystal. But can be easily accessed to view by anyone, by just surfing the web for the Project Gutenberg – Old Irish Glass by Mrs Graydon Stannus and looking for plate number XLIV which is in the Mrs Halls Collection.
