Greener & Co., Sunderland, registered design number 182002 on 30 October 1891. Jenny Thompson describes the registration as for “pattern, mostly imit. cut”.
Until recently, the only reference photo I had for this pattern was of a clear pressed glass double sweetmeat dish with interlaced handles on one side.
Now I have photos to show of a pair of yellow-green uranium glass tumblers (highly reactive to UV light) bearing the embossed registration number 182002. They each measure 7˝ cms high with a 5 cms diameter top and a 4 cms diameter base.
(Permission for the re-use of the images of these tumblers on the GMB granted by Kevin Collins).
A similar tumbler was discussed by Bernard C. at
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,13368.msg86987.html#msg86987but only with a link to his photo on the Glass Queries Gallery rather than the photo itself for show.
Although I have seen examples of a number of Greener & Co. pieces in various coloured glasses (including amber, blue, various marbled opaque, clear opalescent, blue opalescent, butterscotch opalescent, and yellow opalescent), the only other Greener & Co. piece I can recall seeing in ‘plain’ [without any opalescence] yellow/ yellow-green uranium glass is a rustic-handled basket ( bearing their RD 95935, 16 Mar 1888, in the basket and RD 96776, 27 Mar 1888, on the handle).
Dave Peterson showed a yellow-green uranium creamer from Angus & Greener’s RD 209161, 26 June 1867, at
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,36031.msg195877.html#msg195877He also has a photo of a yellow uranium glass example of the Henry Greener RD 23691, 7 December 1869, ‘Peabody’ cup at
http://www.vaselineglass.org/gpgreenerL.jpgand there is also a commonly found yellow uranium flared and footed vase attributed to an unregistered Henry Greener design.
Does anyone have photos to show of other ‘plain’ yellow or yellow-green uranium glass pieces from Angus & Greener, Henry Greener, or Greener & Co., please?
Fred.
