PLATE IX.

[Illustration: WATERFORD BOWL, _circa_ 1783. 8 in. by 10 in. Very flat

diamond cutting, on three feet carved as paws. This bowl, which is one

of the finest the author has ever seen, is exceptionally notable from

the fact that the pontil has been _worked up into an ornament_ instead

of being broken off. In the collection of Commander Swithinbank.]

[Illustration: WATERFORD FLOWER BOWL, 12 in. high. Heavy early glass,

finely cut, with castellated edge. _Circa_ 1783. In the collection of

Commander Swithinbank.]

[Illustration: WATERFORD CANOE-SHAPED BOWL, deep colour and rare shape;

1783. 10 in. high, 14 in. wide. In Viscount Furness's collection.]

[Illustration: An exceptionally large "TURNOVER" CORK BOWL, on heavily

domed base; early. Flat cutting. 12 in. high. In the collection of Mrs.

Rea. A similar example is in the Walter Harding collection.]
