Hello Chris, I have recently bought two large vases and the same size bowl as yours. I understand they are by webb's
and designed by Stan Eveson
There is a reference to this on page 302 of 20 th centuary british glass by Charles Hajdamach.
Looks like I was beaten to it.

I have one ashtray in green (yours looks more like teal to me, Chris) that's 6¼-in in diameter. One thing that does surprise me is that none appear to be signed 'Webb'...  ???

Just to add another image to the subject,
the purple vase is 8 inches high and the green one is 6 inches high. The bowl is as previously described.
Good value for handmade British art glass (although mass produced)

Bad choice of words at the end of my post. I feel the people who had to turn this glass out on a day to day basis is nothing short of astounding.
