The KM Wedgwood mark refers to pottery and ceramics designed by Keith Murray (1892–1981), a New Zealand-born architect and industrial designer who created iconic Art Deco and Modern-style tableware and decorative pieces for Josiah Wedgwood and Sons during the 1930s and 1940s.
The Brook is a private club located at 111 East 54th Street in Manhattan in New York City.
The 1925 clubhouse, designed by William Adams Delano
It was founded in 1903 by a group of prominent men who belonged to other New York City private clubs, such as the Knickerbocker Club, the Metropolitan Club (New York City) and the Union Club. The name is derived from the Alfred, Lord Tennyson poem The Brook, whose lines "For men may come and men may go, but I go on for ever" were consistent with the intention that the club would provide 24-hour service and would never close its doors. In 1992, the City Journal wrote that the name was "supposed to mean that the Club is always open and the conversation flows on forever," but that "neither is strictly true." One version of the club's origin holds that The Brook was formed by two young men who had been expelled from the Union Club for trying to poach an egg on the bald head of another club member.
