Ysart Glass was made by a family of Spanish immigrants to Scotland, led by their father, Salvador Ysart, between 1924 and 1979 (when Paul Ysart retired). There are three types of Ysart glass, namely Monart, Vasart, and the Ysart paperweights. Monart glass (1924-61) was made by the whole family at the Moncreiff Glassworks, Perth in Scotland. The Ysart family founded Vasart Glass in 1946, when Salvador Ysart and two of his sons left Moncrieff Glassworks and set up their own works in Perth. This now-famous immigrant Spanish family had designed and made the very successful "Monart" glass vases and bowls whilst working at Moncrieff Glassworks, and Vasart glass was similar to Monart but the colours were more pastel. Later Vasart was taken over by Teachers and the name changed to Strathearn Glass. Strathearn glass is similar to Vasart and Monart, with a return to bright colours in some examples. Like Monart, the glass was made by blowing a clear crystal blank, then rolling this molten vessel over a pattern made up from crushed fragments of coloured glass (enamels). The whole vase was then cased in clear crystal. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
