Harry Powell was inspired by 16th and 17th century German and Dutch Old Master paintings when designing some of his vessels. Within this lot, two of these can be identified as the ‘serpent vases’, also referred to as ‘comet’ vases, which Powell based on paintings he had seen at the Rijksmuseum in 1910. See L. Jackson, Whitefriars Glass The Art of James Powell & Sons, Shepton Beauchamp, 1996, pp. 111-112 for further discussion of this type.
