In Chinese the word sounds like the word for 'Good Fortune'. In 'Rock crystal' engraving the design and uncut surface are polished, as opposed to normal wheel-engraving where the design is not polished and contrasts with the surface. Both Thomas Webb and Stevens & Williams undertook this style of engraving during the 1870s and 1880s. reference term-108070 adlib-term-108070 7e278258-23e3-3d5b-a4ff-ab5ecacb4bf3 19th Century, Late reference term-120127 adlib-term-120127 ee2ddbd4-503c-30f5-8cf9-3c2d121bd315 Victoria I reference term-109875 adlib-term-109875 1dd1eb9b-5dbf-34df-bde7-4ddbc292e7aa literal England England country literal West Midlands West Midlands region Stourbridge was formerly in Worcestershire Stourbridge reference term-124236 adlib-term-124236 1407bc0d-27da-343c-b9b6-fcc987256e40 literal England England country literal West Midlands West Midlands region Brierley Hill was formerly in Staffordshire Brierley Hill reference term-34860 adlib-term-34860 67da8788-5315-3567-a4af-162c77de3840 lead-glass Height cm 7.9 Width cm 10 reference term-107667 adlib-term-107667 1b81c806-cfb7-3291-9803-525db5f75e09 bowl vase history note Howard Phillips, Henrietta Place, London, from whom purchased in October 1975; Sir Ivor and Lady Batchelor, St Andrew's, Fife; Sir Ivor died on 24 April 2005; on loan since 2006 (Syndicate of 30 January) reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Ref. pp. 94, 98, 102, and cf. p. 101, pl. 100, a bowl with Chinese motifs engraved by Frank Scheibner for Stevens & Williams, 1884. 101 reference publication-1948 adlib-publication-1948 a28718d7-bae1-356b-9455-d4f5d5ff3051 Nineteenth Century British Glass
