Footnote
Note; Stabler was appointed director of the metalworking section of the Keswick School of Industrial Art in 1898, and left in 1902, the year this mirror was made. He began working for R.L.B. Rathbone in the metalworking department of Liverpool School of Art that same year and it may be that the present lot was made there.
