Philip Webb (1831-1915) has created a design that combines a flat-bottomed vessel part, typical of an elaborately coloured and enamel-painted 16th-century Venetian goblet, with a stem of six twisted canes (rods) of glass and a raised foot. But in designing it for clear glass and giving the vessel part a ribbed profile he has invented an entirely new form.<br><br><b>People</b><br>Webb designed a set of table glass intended for the personal use of the designer and writer William Morris (1834-1896) at Red House, Bexleyheath, Kent. The fully completed drawings for this glass are dated January 1860. It was made by James Powell & Sons of London. That first set, which no longer survives, was elaborately historicist in style and included enamel-painted decoration.  By 1862 Webb was converting the more elaborate designs into a plainer range for multiple production. This goblet is from that plainer range.","physicalDescription":"This wine glass is one the range of glasses by the architect Philip Webb.  They appear to have come from Morris's own home, having been commissioned by him. Cutting and engraving were frowned upon and emphasis on the natural and simple blown form characterises these glasses.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Webb, Philip","id":"A1012"},"association":{"text":"designer","id":"AAT25190"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[{"name":{"text":"James Powell & Son (Whitefriars Glassworks) Ltd","id":"A344"},"association":{"text":"manufacturer","id":"AAT25230"},"note":""}],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"glass","id":"AAT10797"}],"techniques":[],"materialsAndTechniques":"Glass, hand-blown and part mould-blown","categories":[{"text":"ELISE","id":"THES48961"},{"text":"Glass","id":"THES48946"},{"text":"Drinking","id":"THES48965"}],"styles":[{"text":"Victorian","id":"AAT21232"}],"collectionCode":{"text":"CER","id":"THES48594"},"images":["2006AT7979","2006AT7981","2006AT6972","2006AT6971","2018KV2850","2018KV8727","2019LX7817","2020MP1869","2020MR5637"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"125G (VA)","id":"THES49212"},"free":"","case":"CA4","shelf":"","box":"40"}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Glass","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"London","id":"x28980"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1862-1863","earliest":"1862-01-01","latest":"1863-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Given by Mrs J.
