The company's founder, Frederick Stuart, started working in the glass industry as an 11-year-old orphan in 1827 at the Red House Glassworks in Stourbridge, an area known as the "crystal mile" due to its concentration of master glassmakers.
During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Stuart & Sons flourished under designers like Ludwig Kny and John Luxton, producing Art Nouveau pieces with flowing forms and delicate colored trails. The "peacock eye" or "tadpole" trailed decoration, as seen in the image, was a signature style often made for retailers like Liberty & Co.
The firm was known for high-quality craftsmanship and received a Royal Warrant in 1909, supplying glassware to the British royal family. They also famously provided tableware for the RMS Titanic in 1912.
