Title: iridescent small vase and jug - ID = Webb Bronze glass circa 1880
Post by: david31162 on May 09, 2009, 07:57:54 PM

Can anyone help with an ID for these? They are both about 11cm high on a dark green glass base with a concave ground pontil. I think they'e got a fair bit of age as there is quite a bit of wear to the bases. They look almost black, particularly the dimpled vase. Sorry about the quality of the photos (it's getting dark).
Thank you,
David

Wow this foum is so good!
