A rare wine glass or champagne flute of coal-mining interest c.1780, the tapering bowl finely cut with an ovolu border beneath tiny foliate sprigs, engraved below with 'Success to the Thwaite Colliery', the reverse with an armorial crest of a rearing bull above a ducal coronet, the monogram JS below, the stem cut with six vertical facets, 16.6cm. Provenance: from a private collection in Sussex. Exhibited: English Glass Circle exhibitions, 'Strange and Rare', 1987, no. 146, and Diamond Jubilee, 1997, no. 127. This glass is thought to be the only 18th century one known to commemorate the opening of a colliery. Thwaite Colliery, about 4 miles outside Leeds between Hunslet and Rothwell, was owned by John Smyth, and the heraldic bull is his family crest. The mine was opened in 1780 and closed in 1796. The engineer who designed the main shafts was John Smeaton, better known for constructing the lighthouse now on Plymouth Ho. Smyth held various offices during his life being, MP for Pontefract, a Privy Councillor, a Lord of the Admiralty and the principal proprietor of the Aire and Calder Navigation Company which owned the mine. There is a portrait of him by Pompeo Battoni in York Art Gallery.

(2) Provenance: from a private collection in Sussex.
An armorial wine glass c.1765, the drawn trumpet bowl probably engraved in the 19th century with the crest of a lion rampant, emerging from brick battlements and holding an axe, raised on a double series opaque twist stem, 16.3cm. The crest on this glass appears to be for Sir Richard Quain, 1st Baronet, of 67 Harley Street London. He was a specialist in disorders of the heart, a member of both the Garrick Club and the Athenaeum, and was appointed physician extraordinary to Queen Victoria in 1891.
A Worcester slop bowl c.1765-70, decorated outside of the factory, possibly in the atelier of James Giles, with a Japan pattern of single figures with birds and panels of famille rose flowers alternating with bands of chrysanthemum mon on an orange red ground, 14.8cm dia. Cf. Stephen Hanscombe, James Giles China and Glass Painter, no.95 for a near identical bowl in the Ashmolean Museum.
