Font The octagonal stone font is thought to be 15th century. It has not always been in the possession of St. Helen’s Church. In the Parish Magazine of 1906, the Rector writes, ‘ The beautiful early English Font, which was cast aside to be replaced by the present one and was lost to the church for so many years; used as a flower pot in a private garden, has, by kind thoughtfulness of Mrs Sutton and Mrs Powell, been restored to the Church. It has been carefully restored, and is placed on the grass between the buttresses on the South side of the Church.’ With the completion of the Baptistry, in 1932, the font was placed in its present position. th 15 century Font Font Cover The wooden cover was made from the oak staircase which was taken from Arderne Hall after it was demolished in 1958. The cover was dedicated on Sunday 16th April 1961 in memory of John James Daine and his wife Evelyn Anna Daine. 3.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: a WORLD for ALL and NONE: DE
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: A WORLD FOR ALL AND NONE: DE STIJL, MODERNISM, AND THE DECORATIVE ARTS Devon Quinn Zimmerman Doctor of Philosophy 2020 Dissertation directed by: Professor Steven Mansbach, Department of Art History and Archaeology In October 1917, the first issue of the journal De Stijl was printed in the Netherlands under the editorial leadership of Theo van Doesburg. The publication became a nexus around which a core group of progressive artists, architects, and designers were brought together. They all shared a similar goal: to be a platform through which a new aesthetic would be declared, one that would diagnose and resolve the social, cultural, and metaphysical conditions that had led to the First World War. The group’s vision was totalizing, meant to encompass all forms of art, from armchairs to architecture. This dissertation explores the position of the decorative arts within De Stijl’s utopian project. The decorative arts were the bellwether of many of the principal social, cultural, and political problems that modernity brought to the fore. As a result, the polemics that emerged from the decorative arts profoundly informed the development of De Stijl’s artistic praxis and theoretical framework during the formative years of the group. By acknowledging the origins of many of De Stijl’s intellectual and aesthetic positions within the decorative arts, this dissertation aims to present a renewed perspective on the group’s formal projects in interior design, stained glass, and furniture. By rooting the work of these artists within the instrumental role of the decorative arts, this dissertation gives needed attention to these essential, yet undertheorized aspects of De Stijl’s utopian project to provide new insights into one of the most prominent artistic movements of the interwar period.

  • The Stained Glass Windows of Llanelly
    There are four stained glass windows in this church, from two or three studios; two from Powell's of Fleet Street, London, and one from The Stained Glass Celtic Studios of Swansea. The fourth window, the war memorial window, is from another supplier, as yet unclear. Windows of Llanelly The firm of James Powell and Sons, also known as Whitefriars Glass, were English glassmakers, leadlighters and stained glass window manufacturers. As Whitefriars Glass, the company existed from the 17th century, but became well known as a result of the 19th century Gothic Revival and the demand for stained glass windows. In 1834 James Powell (1774–1840), a London wine merchant and entrepreneur, purchased the Whitefriars' Glass Company, a small glassworks off Fleet Street in London, believed to have been established in 1680. Powell and his sons were newcomers to glass making, but soon acquired the necessary expertise. They experimented and developed new techniques, devoting a large part of their production to the creating of church stained glass windows. The firm acquired a large number of patents for their new ideas and became world leaders in their field, business being boosted by the building of hundreds of new churches during the Victorian era. While Powells' manufactured stained glass windows, they also provided glass to other stained glass firms. During the latter part of the nineteenth century, the firm formed a close association with leading architects and designers such as T G Jackson, Edward Burne-Jones, William De Morgan and James Doyle. Celtic Studios was founded by two cousins from Morriston; Howard Martin and Hubert Thomas in 1933.

  • Uranium Glass by Barrie Skelcher
    Uranium Glass By Barrie Skelcher To the general public the word uranium is synonymous with nuclear weapons, nuclear power stations and radioactivity. But the term uranium glass, to the collector, will always be associated with that oily, yellow-green, transparent medium known colloquially as Vaseline glass. However, this is only part of the story. The chemistry textbooks tell us that uranium was discovered by the German chemist, Martin Heinrich Klaproth, in 1789, which is perhaps a simplification of the truth. The element was named after the planet Uranus and what Klaproth reported to the Royal Prussian Academy of Science in that year was uranium oxide, which he had separated from the heavy, black mineral known as pitchblende. The element itself was not isolated until 1841, but this did not stop it from being used in glassmaking. The chemistry of uranium is somewhat complex as it has several valency states. It is also amphoteric, being able to act as either a base or an acid. Hence we can have such compounds as uranium nitrate or sodium diuranate. This must have made life somewhat bewildering for the early 19th century glassmakers, especially as the chemists of those years had only a very crude understanding of molecular compositions. Perhaps this is why in the surviving batch books of those days we find such loose terminology. For example in a Whitefriars batch book of 1832, on the same page we see the terms “Saltpetre” and “Nitre” used in adjacent recipes when they were in fact the same compound, i.e. potassium nitrate. In other books we see recipes using the term “lead”, “litharge”, “red lead” and even “lead or litharge”.

  • OPUS SECTILE Art from Recycled Scrap Dennis Hadley
    OPUS SECTILE Art from recycled scrap Dennis Hadley Published by the Tiles & Architectural Ceramics Society 2018 Preface It is now 17 years since TACS first published Dennis Hadley„s Powell‟s list: Opus sectile work by Powell’s of Whitefriars on our website. While this list remains online and is uncorrected at 2018 it continues to have considerable research value and is freely available to all. In October 2006, Dennis Hadley was invited by TACS to present a paper to a well attended conference on Church Ceramics at Coalbrookdale. The title of his paper was then as now: Opus Sectile: Art from recycled scrap. This new publication, written in late 2014, is an updated and revised version of that 2006 paper, and together with the Powell„s list represents a comprehensive record of one man„s personal research on this specialist subject. Dennis Hadley wished TACS to have his collection of photographs of opus sectile and these were donated to the Society in 2014. A number of these images, captioned by him, are reproduced here. The quality of the images is sometimes variable but we offer no apologies for this. It is a publication intended as an article of record only, a setting down of almost everything that Dennis Hadley had to say about opus sectile and contained within it is his hope that others might want to take his research further. The term „opus sectile‟ continues to be used in descriptions of medieval tile production or to refer to medieval pavements of stone and marble mosaic. See for example, Elizabeth Eames‟ Catalogue of Medieval Lead-glazed Earthenware Tiles which was published in 1980 for the British Museum, or Alun Graves‟ Tiles and Tilework of Europe, published by the V&A in 2002.
