A rare enamelled Masonic tumbler attributed to Beilby, dated 1779

Item Details

Description

A rare enamelled Masonic tumbler attributed to Beilby, dated 1779
The tapering bucket form with a solid base, one side inscribed 'I*M 1779' in opaque white, within an elaborate scrollwork and floral cartouche, the other side with the Square and Compasses enclosing the letter 'G' in yellow, red and white, the sides with foliate sprigs, 9.5cm high
Footnotes:
Provenance
Darell Thompson-Schwab Collection

A tumbler of similar size and form inscribed and dated 'M*BELL 1778' in Corning Museum of Glass (inv. no.79.2.71) may be one of the latest datable pieces of glass from the Beilby workshop, see Simon Cottle, 'William Beilby and the Art of Glass', The Glass Circle Journal, Vol.9 (2001), p.34. William Beilby is known to have still been living in Newcastle in 1778 and we know for certain that he had moved to London by 1779, together with his sister Mary, see James Rush, The Ingenious Beilbys (1973), pp.119 and 122 and Cottle (2001), p.35. No further glass appears to have been decorated by the family after this. The present tumbler bears similarities to several Masonic tumblers decorated in the Beilby workshop in a similar style and palette a decade or so earlier, see the previous lot in this sale, raising the possibility that it may be by a Beilby hand. If William Beilby made the move to London early in 1779, when he is first recorded in Battersea, this may therefore represent the latest dated piece of glass attributable Beilby workshop.
