Davidson Luna
Kingfisher Blue Vase
Height: 8"
This Luna range with its bark effect surface was very popular in the late 1960's & 1970's.
Introduced 1971
More contemporary glassware was introduced in 1970 and 1971. Some of which was designed by G C Merryweather. 1971 saw the introduction of the 'Luna' range of glassware which had a sculptured surface which looked like the bark of a tree. Davidson were not the only company producing glassware with this appearance. Whitefriars are probably the most well know manufacturer of this style of glass.
After 1971 there is very little news about Davidson in the records. In 1977 they are known to have produced a silver jubilee commemorative plate in the style of their Victorian predecessors. After struggling for many years, the glassworks closed in 1987 and the company was dissolved in 1992.
