British crystal maker Frederick Stuart purchased the distinctive Red House Glass Cone -- a conical brick structure for making crystal and glass -- in Wordsley, England, in 1920. But by the time he acquired this famous building, he had already been manufacturing crystal glass ware there for nearly 40 years -- leasing it from the Red House Cone Glassworks Company. In 1924, he began etching the name Stuart into the items the company manufactured, and by 1927, Stuart Crystal had become the trademark name for the high-quality items such as footed crystal bowls and decanters for which he and his sons became known.
Burr Walnut
refers to the swirling figure present in nearly all walnut when cut and polished, and especially in the wood taken from the base of the tree where it joins the roots. However the true burr is a rare growth on the tree where hundreds of tiny branches have started to grow. Burr walnut produces some of the most complex and beautiful figuring you can find.
