Since the Stuart design books ate not available, perhaps someone can help me research the specifics on the following design numbers:

53732   03   August   1886   Stuart & Sons   Flower bowl – fairy lamps
53733   07   August   1886   Stuart & Sons   Pattern of fairy lamp shade
53734   07   August   1886   Stuart & Sons   Pattern of flower stand with fairy lamp


Perhaps one or all will confirm the twisted nailsea design, or perhaps something else waiting to be discovered.

Hi Jim, we have a dedicated RD No. lookup request topic here:

add the details in the requested format and it will appear as if by magic soon-ish! :)
(Thanks to Paul's fab efforts!)
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd

Yep, and somewhere there is a matching shade.  This is a base to Clarke's model 210.  Nice find!!

Clarke tended to group designs together that were by the same manufacturer.  Webb, Stevens & Williams, Taylor Tunnicliff, etc seemed promoted as a group.  So, if the Twisted Nailsea design is by Stuart, are the others in this series by Stuart also?  See attached excerpt from Clarke's catalog.

not being part of my normal interest area, I've haven't followed this thread, and so missed seeing the request for National Archive data.
Since 1886 falls a little beyond the range where I would normally have readily available pix (1842 - 1884) - I will need to make a visit especially for Rd. Nos. 53732-3-4.
I see Christine has kindly explained, briefly in words, some outline description of the images of these three Registered designs - although this won't mean a great deal I suspect unless you have Mervyn Gulliver's book, which shows a reproduction of the original Stuart drawings.

I don't know if Jim has Gulliver's book  -  if you do Jim then you won't need pix of the Kew images, since the author does in fact repeat exactly (albeit in his own hand drawn pictures) the Archive images.          However, if you don't have the author's book, and would like to see digital photos of the National Archive Stuart drawings of these three Registrations, do shout and I can provide these a little later this week.

Of course, I may be way too late to provide anything of interest, but thought I'd ask just in case. :)

Yes, I have the Gulliver book and am aware of the drawings.  Thanks.
