Harry Powell for James Powell and Sons, Whitefriars, an Arts and Crafts wine glass, circa 1880, plain conical 'Martini' form, on slender stem and shallow conical foot, 12.5cm high Note: the simplicity and elegance of this design is typical of Powell's innovative reaction to taste and artistic trend in the late 19th century; a design which 45 years later became adopted as the Martini cocktail glass, first introduced at the 1925 Paris Exhibition, and one which continues to be a timeless staple of classic glassware.
