AN ARTS & CRAFTS ROSE BOWL
on a spreading foot, embossed around the sides with trailing roses against a hammered ground & signed "L.Movio 1910"*, by the Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Co.Ltd., London 1910
*Louis Movio was a chaser & general metalworker who is said to have worked for W.G. Connell of Cheapside & taught raised work at the Birmingham Municipal School of Art from 1899. There seems to be some confusion with Latino Movio (with whom he may have been connected or one and the same person), who worked as a chaser for Gilbert Marks (See Culme, J: Directory of God & Silversmiths, p.335 Vol.1)
