Pearline Glass

George Davidson established a glassworks near Gateshead in 1867. Production stopped after a disastrous fire in 1880 but over a year later they were back in business and competing strongly with Sowerby and Greener for the decorative pressed glass market. The pearline series was introduced in 1888 in canary (primrose) yellow and light (sky) blue, with a few other colours produced briefly. Here is a stunning yellow comport in the 'Victoria and Albert' pattern of 1897.
