Scottish Glass - Signed Vasart

In 1946 Salvador Ysart and two of his sons, Vincent and Augustine, left Moncrieff’s glassworks (where Monart had been produced) to start up on their own. Thus began Ysart Brothers Glass at the Shore Works in Perth. They called the new glass Vasart from their initials and used acid to sign the base of each piece 'Vasart'. Here is a lovely small bowl produced c1950. For more details see Premier Antiques
