GW Ex 5c IP 32 - TALWIN MORRIS cast iron stickstand. £POA.
(The 1st 3 pictures to the right are from the Studio)
Talwin Morris has in the past been counted as the 5th member of the Glasgow Four, because of his maturity & long standing friendship with ' The Spook School '- (Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Herbert Macnair, & Margaret & Francis Macdonald). He was first to translate their ideas into commercial design & the first collector of items that they designed &
produced. He came to Glasgow in 1893, a crucial time in the development of the Glasgow Style, to take up his post as director
of Blackie's publishing house.
He studied as an Architect & designed many items of jewellery, hand beaten metalwork & even pieces of furniture, which are very rare, but he is most famous for his incrediable Glasgow Style designs of metalwork & for Blackie book covers whom Mackintosh also designed for, but probably most important was that, 'he secured' for Macintosh the commission for the
Blackie's new home in Helensborough, The Hill House..
There are only 2 known example's of a cast iron stick stand designed by Talwin Morris the other design has through cut outs to the heart centre's & slits to the sides.
