  Miss Cranston, the creator of Glasgow's Tearooms, embodies the qualities which produced Glasgow's great achievements, with her capacity for hard work, her commitment to quality, and her adventurous interest in the new. She was 'a real business woman' who applied the wealth she created to support for outstanding artistic talent. Ahead of her time, she ensured that her Tearooms were designed and furnished by talented young artists like Charles Rennie Mackintosh.
