Footnote
Note: 'Monart' glass was produced in Perth from the 1920s to 1960s. The Monart name grew from the collaboration of the Moncrieff and Ysart families. Salvador Ysart and his son Paul came to work at the factory in 1922 and created vibrant designs that were supplied to stores such as Liberty’s in London.
