Topic: ???? Stevens & Williams ??? Joshua Hodgetts vase??

[Ph]

Good evening,
I'd like to share this vase that I discovered in a glass job I bought in an auction this week for staggering £25. It is 18cm tall and has citron and amethyst overlay that is intricately engraved with 2 different birds at each side and flowers. Colour combination is stunning. It is difficult to photograph to show it all. Thought I might fill it with milk to actually see everything 😂😂😂 but with Easter Sunday coming up and shops closed, not sure if my family would appreciate it 😂.  Is this Stevens & Williams and possibly Joshua Hodgetts? Many thanks for your thoughts! Petra

Very lucky, I didn't know what I was bidding on really...I was after the wine glasses mainly and didn't even notice the vase as the auctioneer photo was so poor (see attached 😉)... just thought it all looked too good not to bid even though I haven't checked the lot properly. I only started hopping with delight the following day when I collected it all. Still don't understand why I was the only bidder on it..😃

The yellow layer is not uranium unfortunately. It was the first thing I checked tho 😁.

What a lovely vase, looks very much like it could be Stevens and Williams.

Maybe  worth an email to Will Farmer from Fieldings Auctions as they have all the pattern books for Stevens and Williams.

I was very lucky this year to buy a set of six Stevens and Williams wine glasses an with the help of Fieldings now have a pattern number ,date of 1915  and been valued at around £5000. They were bought from an antique center for not a great deal more than your lot at auction.

Well done.
