介绍（中）	这件物品是哈里·鲍威尔（葡萄酒商人詹姆斯·鲍威尔的孙子，1834年购买了白修士玻璃厂）设计的一系列花瓶中的一个非常好的例子。哈里·鲍威尔在19世纪80年代和90年代的设计创造了一整套装饰器皿，其特点是精致的不规则波浪边碗和微妙的有色玻璃。玻璃的细腻，碗的褶皱突出，灵感来自威尼斯基督。精致的不规则碗的流畅设计，似乎像花朵一样自然诞生，证明了白修士玻璃制造商的技能，也证明了鲍威尔对他们工艺的信心，通过将部分成形的熔融玻璃倒置在吹管上并将其向外摆动以形成自然形状而不是通过更传统的用卷曲工具手动操作玻璃来实现。在这一点上，这篇文章体现了詹姆斯·鲍威尔的核心哲学；儿子们会奖励玻璃制造商的技术，并庆祝其材料的颜色和特性，而不是简单地依赖于表面装饰和装饰。在他们的生产光谱的另一端，James Powell&；Sons还使用了这组花瓶碗设计的颜色和格式，在功能更强大的玻璃器皿中产生了巨大而有影响力的效果，如油灯碗。
介绍（英）	This object is a very fine example of the series of vases designed by Harry Powell (grandson of the wine-merchant, James Powell, who had purchased the Whitefriars Glassworks in 1834). Harry Powell’s designs of the 1880s and ‘90s created a whole group of decorative vessels characterized by delicately irregular wavy-rimmed bowls and subtly tinted glass. The fineness of the glass, accentuated by the ruffles of the bowl, is inspired by Venetian cristallo. The fluid design of the delicately irregular bowl, seemingly organically born of nature like a flower’s bloom, is testament to the skill of the Whitefriars’ glassmakers and to Powell’s confidence in their craftsmanship, achieved by holding the partially-shaped molten glass upside down on the blowpipe and swinging it out to create the natural form rather than by more conventionally manually manipulating the glass with a crimping tool. In this, this piece exemplifies the core philosophy of James Powell & Sons to prize glassmakers’ technique and celebrate the colors and property of their material, rather than to simply depend upon surface decoration and embellishment. At the opposite end of their spectrum of production, James Powell & Sons also used the colors and format of this group of vases’ bowl designs to great and influential effect in more functional glassware as the bowls for oil lamps.
