Henry Greener - Sunderland Glass

In 1857 Henry Greener left the Gateshead firm of Sowerby to start pressed glass production with James Angus at the Wear Flint Glass Works in Sunderland. In 1878 he registered the demi-lion holding a star trademark. Coloured items to rival Sowerby and Davidson were produced. For a selection of Greener glass visit Premier Antiques
