Webb and Corbett Paperweight
« on: June 08, 2023, 06:30:46 PM »
This is another striking design in Webb and Corbett's faceted range. Diameter 8cm, height 5.5cm. weight 540gms. Dates from, I think, 1970's.

Not seen that shape before, very nice, been trying to find out if this is also one of their pieces.

Thanks Keith, I'd not seen the shape either and there don't seem to be any Webb and Corbett catalogues available for reference. Yours looks like one of theirs  but again it can't be confirmed.

I did take this to the Webb Corbett visitor centre and left my email, still waiting for a reply, that was over 3 years ago  ::)
