The Arts and Crafts Society's Exhibition
Harry J. Powell (see pages 42 and 43). In this
connection should be mentioned the examples of
Lancastrian lustre pottery, that rank among the
most noteworthy things in the exhibition. This
ware, wonderful in the richness and brilliancy of
its colour, is shown by the Pilkington Tile and
Pottery Company. Most of the iron work in the
exhibition is arranged in the Central Hall. It
includes an admirably wrought screen in bright
iron, made by an Edinburgh blacksmith, Mr.
Thomas Hadden, from a design by Mr. R. S.
Lorimer, the architect (p. 34) ; a panel for a stair-
case, designed by Mr. W. G. Paulson Townsend,
and executed by Mr. Albert Muller; and a good

his six-way electric pendant in steel and brass
(above). Other good things shown in the cases
in the West Room are Mr. Harold Stabler’s copper
biscuit box ; Miss Florence Steele’s casket, stately
and dignified, in spite of its small scale, made for
the Borough of Preston, and her child’s bowl in
silver with angels’ heads in relief on the base
(page 36); Mr. Richard Garbe’s box in ivory and
brass (January No., page 302); another casket, of
silver, by Mr. A. E. Jones; and Miss Dora K.
Allen’s charming inkpot in silver and enamel, an
excellent example of the good work done recently
at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art.
Mr. Alexander Fisher shows some beautiful
things in his case in the Central Hall, notably a
fine morse in gold and silver, adorned with enamel,
sapphires and moonstones (page 37). Here, too,
are shown the Ruskin pottery, pieces of simple
form and harmonious colour, that in price are
not beyond the purchasing powers of the ap-
preciative collector whose purse is modest; and
the remarkable group of fine glass, goblets
bowls, vases and bottles, contributed by Mr.
