Description: | Barnaby Powell, great-grandson of the founder of Whitefriars, designed this vase in 1932. He had joined the firm as a director at the close of the First World War, but resigned from his position in 1920 so he could work instead as a salaried designer. He was responsible for the majority of the glass designs during the 1930s, including this sea green - the colour name used by Whitefriars - vase with its hand-applied ribbon-trailed decoration. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Geffrye Museum | Rights holder: | Geffrye Museum | Subjects: | Home and Family | Temporal: | 1932 | Source: | Geffrye Museum | Creator: | James Powell & Sons (Whitefriars) Ltd | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
