Description: | This small vase appears in Sowerby's 1882 pattern book of 'Fancy Goods'. Sowerby's used the term 'malachite' to describe a wide range of coloured glass mixed with white to produce a marbled effect. Whilst malachite is in fact a light to dark green mineral, other colours termed malachite by Sowerby include white mixed with red, blue, black and grey. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | North East makers art designers glass makers date period | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
