Reference :Other examples sold have been atributed to being designed by Charles Renie Mackintosh. Despite considerable efforts of ourselves and the Kelvin Grove Art Gallery we have been unable to confirm this as having any basis in fact. We believe this be nothing more than conjecture and others have simply followed the lead without reverting to primary sources.

Technically this is a transitional piece from Nouveau to deco and it has strong artistic merit.
