Webb and Corbett Spider
« on: February 06, 2022, 11:53:07 AM »
I've just bought this and as there hasn't been one posted for a while I thought I'd post it. I've put it with the two faceted ones I've had for a while. I think that these were produced in the 1970's, surprising for uranium glass.

Nothing beats the uranium spiderwebb.  ;D
I made an exception to my rule of "no paperweights" for this beauty. Shame it's out of focus, because I caught multiple spiders in it and the colours worked really nicely.  ::)

Definitely the best Sue, closely followed by my faceted ones. I like the way you get a different view of the spider through each facet. The dragonfly and the fish? ones look interesting.
