Dyer & Watts, who later became Dyer, Harper & Dyer, made top quality furniture with stencilled decoration, although a lesser known maker with a smaller output than many other makers of that period

In 1866 Poynter married the famous beauty Agnes MacDonald, daughter of the Rev G B MacDonald of Wolverhampton.

Poynter was the first Slade Professor from 1871 to 1875, was Principal of the National Art Training School from 1875 to 1881, he received an honorary degree from Cambridge University in 1898, & was made a baronet in 1902, was Director of the National Gallery from 1894 to 1904 (overseeing the opening of the Tate Gallery), & became a Royal Academician in 1876, he took over as the President of The Royal Academy after Millais died in 1896 he also received a knighthood in that year, & remained president of The Royal Academy for twenty two years until he finally retired in 1918 & only because he was almost blind.

His designs were often heavily influenced by Burne-Jones. This was researched by Bill Waters who was formerly assistant curator of Tullie House Museum, Carlisle and author (with Martin Harrison) of a comprehensive monograph on the work of Edward Coley Burne-Jones called simply 'Burne-Jones' (London:Barrie & Jenkins 1973), other works on Burne-Jones and 'Stained glass from Shrigley & Hunt of Lancaster and London' (University of Lancaster 2003).

Margaret Thomson Wilson (1864-1912), a pair of embossed copper and oak panels, signed 'MTW' in a square, 33cm x 27cm. Margaret Thomson Wilson was born in Cambuslang in 1864 and died suddenly in Glasgow in 1912. She enrolled as a student at the Glasgow School of Art in 1892 where she participated in a wide variety of disciplines but most particularly her emphasis was on repousse metalwork. She became a member of the Glasgow Society of Lady Artists from about 1893. In 1898 she exhibited at the People's Palace Inaugural Exhibition in Glasgow and from this point exhibited widely, mainly in paintings and metalwork until her death in 1912. A report in the Studio magazine of 1899 of 'The Glasgow School of Art Club' annual exhibition at the Fine Art Institute regarded her hammered brass as 'work of excellent quality'. Of the exhibition as a whole, it was reported 'no one interested can fail to observe in the best works of the School of Art Club a direct interogation of nature, a study of the refinements of line, a consideration of the exigencies of material, and an effort at expression in the design itself of the purpose of its creation'

Talwin Morris (attributed), a rare Glasgow School cast iron stick, inset with the original tubelined tile of a Glasgow Rose, probably by Pilkington's, cast 'No 176' and 'Rd No 479021', 72.5cm high, 37.5cm wide, 18cm deep Talwin Morris has in the past been counted as the fifth member of the Glasgow Four, because of his maturity and long standing friendship with 'The Spook School' of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Herbert Macnair, and Margaret and Francis Macdonald. He was first to translate their ideas into commercial design and the first collector of items that they designed and produced. He came to Glasgow in 1893, a crucial time in the development of the Glasgow Style, to take up his post as art director of Blackie & Sons publishing house. He had studied as an architect and designed many items of jewellery, hand beaten metalwork and even pieces of furniture, which are rare. He is most famous for his incredible Glasgow Style designs of metalwork and for the book covers for Blackie and others but possibly the most most significant of all was that he secured for Macintosh the commission for the Blackie's new home in Helensborough, The Hill House, considered Macintosh's greatest domestic design.
