介绍（中）	德莱瑟在他的职业生涯中相对较晚才接触到玻璃器皿。这个花瓶属于1888年由James Couper & Sons位于格拉斯哥的玻璃厂注册的"Clutha"玻璃器皿组。从这一天到1896年，Christopher Dresser是Couper & Sons' Clutha玻璃器皿的唯一设计师，该玻璃器皿从1880年代到1900年左右由Liberty&Co.在伦敦零售。"Clutha"这个名字故意被历史化，是格拉斯哥克莱德河的古老，也许是浪漫化的盖尔语名称。在 1870-73 年《技术教育家》上发表的一篇文章中，德莱塞庆祝了"玻璃具有熔融状态，可以吹成最美丽的形状"，而德莱塞的大部分克鲁萨花瓶的设计都取决于生产过程的这种独特性;拥抱不规则的有机形式，并撬开彩色条纹和气泡，特别是介质，德莱塞也欣赏罗马玻璃。Liberty&Co.的宣传将Dresser的Cleutha玻璃器皿描述为"装饰，古朴，原创和艺术"。
介绍（英）	Dresser came to glassware relatively late in his career. This vase belongs to the group of glassware trademarked "Clutha" in 1888 by the Glasgow-based glassworks of James Couper & Sons. From this date until 1896, Christopher Dresser was sole designer of Couper & Sons’ Clutha glassware, which was retailed by Liberty & Co. in London from the 1880s until around 1900. The name "Clutha" was deliberately historicizing, being the old, perhaps romanticized, Gaelic name for Glasgow’s river Clyde. In an article published in the 1870-73 Technical Educator, Dresser celebrated how "Glass has a molten state in which it can be blown into the most beautiful shapes" and the designs of most of Dresser’s Clutha vases depend upon this singularity of the production process; embracing irregular, organic forms and prizing the colored striations, as well as bubbles, particular to the medium, which Dresser also admired in Roman glass. Liberty & Co.’s publicities described Dresser’s Clutha glassware as "decorative, quaint, original and artistic".
