Grandpa was a coal miner, Nana was the soul of our family, and they lived in the Red Row. I loved visiting them, you never knew who’d be there, sweets were always on the table and a story was being shared.
The museum art project revived precious memories. With a sketchbook in hand, my daughter and I enjoyed several afternoons soaking up exhibit stories. I’m pleased with the results; mugs echoing the Marsaut Lamp, Robb FlyWheel, and Samson Locomotive. The little Trenton Glass inspired nappy bowls are so pleasant with their dotted carved designs, I can see why they were popular dessert dishes.
