* Mary Gregory (1856-1908)

is an American artist specializing in enamelled glass. From 1880 to 1890, she worked with her sister at the Boston and Sandwich Glass Company. She has the peculiarity of having represented in her works only children Victorian (wearing sailor suits or crinolines) in the middle of nature scenery, quite like the illustrations of Kate Greenawayet, and more rarely babies. His enamelled subjects, of a milky white very typical and very recognizable, were made by application on glasses, pitchers, carafes, sugar bowls, vases, amethyst-colored salt vials, light green, dark green, amber, light blue, turquoise , blue cobalt or vermeil. His European productions were mainly made in the glass cities of Bohemia, mainly by the Hahn glassworks in Gablonz, and to a lesser extent by the Moser glassworks in Karlsbad and extended until the 1950s.
