RecordAmen glassmade in West Midlands, England
Amen glass'Amen' glasses are so-called because they are inscribed with verses from the Jacobite version of the National Anthem, which ends in 'Amen'. This example is a reproduction made in the West Midlands of England around 1939 by Royal Brierley. The flared drawn trumpet bowl is engraved with a crown and cipher. It is diamond-point engraved with two verses from the `Jacobite` anthem and 'Amen'. In the 1930s, the glass firm of Steven & Williams adopted the word Brierley, their own location, to be used with 'Royal' to signify the possession of the appointment as the Royal British Glassmakers.
