Lemington / Kings Lynn / Wedgwood - Ronald Stennett-Willson designs

Moon crater vase patt.no. rsw25 9.5" tall 1960's stamped wedgwood

This is a steel blue vase designed by Ronald Stennett-Willson in 1960 for Lemington Glass (Newcastle). This shape was also later produced by Wedgwood/Kings Lynn with a very slight alteration to the shape and in different colours. An early piece of Stennett-Willson design.

Sheringham candlesticks in production from 1967-1992 - in various colours and with varying numbers of disks (available from 1 to 9 disks) with the 7 and 9 disk candlesticks being scarce and the 4, 6 and 8 disk candlesticks being rare.

Hexagonal 'Tortoiseshell' glass vase, Ronald Stennett-Wilson for Wedgwood - in production from 1970 to 1974, height 5.75in/12cm.

Ronald Alfred Stennett-Willson sadly passed away at home on 27th November 2009 aged 94.

Lovely, it amazes me that so many labels survive. In those days I would've been tempted to remove them

I think a lot of labelled drinking glasses survive for various factories - especially the better factories - because people get given them as gifts (almost always wedding gifts, it seems), the glasses are deemed too good to use everyday, and so get put in a cupboard for special occasions that never arise, subsequently they are forgotten. It's kind of sad, really.

The lilac sherries came with their original box, which was designed by Stennett-Willson and his wife, Elizabeth Martens:

RSW26 Mould blown Posy Vase. 1968-72 4.5 inches

Nice, it's either Wedgwood or Kings Lynn - they both produced these. I've had two of the 'matching' bowls one had the Wedgwood etched mark to the base the other didn't, am presuming the unmarked one was Kings Lynn production.

A Stennett Wilson 'crator' vase - I think connected to the moon landing

Picked up two 7 discs Sheringham candlesticks on Sunday at the Vintage Home show in Manchester. One of the other dealers had them priced up at £10 the pair lol.

I wouldn't mind but the are acid etched with wedgwood and both still have their labels as well.

Good buy! What colour are they?

Just spotted your other post....clear

Hi

Really interesting cylinder vase with clear heavy base, rounded rim and unusually it has a ground out pontil also. Approx 20 tall with silver air bubble effect.

Just spent and hour cleaning the inside and rinsed it out and ping it fractured. Man that's annoying and only the second time I've done it. Oddly the glass was only mildly warm and the water wasn't cold so there must have been some keen stress in the glass and the tiniest contraction just took it along that line. Going to have to throw it away as I can't deal with looking at it now knowing what I have done to the little beauty.
