Topic: Tall green Webbs? vase help please

[brucebanner]

Hello there i can not find anything on this vase, i think it's by Thomas Webb at a guess 1920's, it has a good ring to it and wear to the base, a flat bottom no pontil but a swirl in the centre of the base.

It's 9 1/2 inches in height, 4 3/4 inches across the rim and 3 5/8th inches across the base.

Any help welcome regards Chris.

Could also be Stuart, nice green,

Do you think the date is about right Keith?, i'm thinking i will probably never know either way who made it.

Chris  -  have you looked on Pamela's sites for a possible match?       This one doesn't speak 1920's to me  -  just my opinion, but I'd suggest a couple of decades later, or getting on for that.

Assume this one doesn't glow.             Stuart, it seems, never used uranium, although T/Webb did.     This doesn't have the looks of a Gay Glass design  -  but Christine is good at those things - what does she think.

As Paul said it might be a bit later it's difficult to tell sometimes a good example would be me yesterday when I saw what was being sold as an Art Deco vase and thought it was a piece of modern repro until earlier this morning reading 20th Century B .Glass,page 192,top right is a Jobling vase from the 1930's, still don't like it though,

No it does not glow Paul, whats the Web address for Pam's site? please. It's really growing on me this one,  it lovely thing to look at.

I assume this is a pressed piece - you might look for any seams.

Always worth having a look, especially the first link, and particularly if you've not been to either before  -  real treat in terms of the variety of pressed glass.           You may well not find it in either, but always worth eliminating them.

It's not a Gay Glass colour, far less shape, so if it's Webb, it's not from that range.

This looks like blown glass i can not see any seams.

or mould blown it's too uneven for pressed glass. There are a lot of runs in the glass mostly on the inner surface and the rim looks very uneven unless it pressed into a mould to look like it?
