Stevens & Williams Royal Brierley Keith Murray Glass ??
« on: April 26, 2022, 09:18:02 PM »
Have been researching this tiny goblet or vase for some time and came up with 1930's Stevens & Williams Royal Brierley by Keith Murray. Base is Vaseline and applied. The exterior is smooth and the interior is molded/paneled 16 times vertically. No sig. 3-1/4" x 2-1/2"Any ideas from the community? Thanks, Rodney

Not seen a piece with that colouring but the wavy lines are similar to this piece of S&W's so it maybe  ;D

I appreciate your reply. I did see a similar piece like yours when researching which made me think S&W.

Is your mushroom posy optic ribbed, Keith?
I do have a habit of suspecting S&W for threaded pieces, but I don't know how many other makers used it too.
I don't feel the little glass in question could be Keith Murray, because I like it. It's curved and elegant. I normally have a very strong aversion to anything KM designed, it's generally full of straight lines and angles. (We can't all like the same things.  ;D )

I did look through my Keith Murray design book and couldn't find anything similar, as for the mushroom posy, I'll let you know when I find it !  ::) ;D ;D
