Title: Thomas Webb Ribbonette Tumblers
Post by: NevB on December 19, 2021, 01:30:20 PM

There are previous posts about this pattern but I thought I'd add these. They are part of the 33130 suite in Ribbonette pattern dating from 1910-28 and are 4" tall and 3" rim diameter with a large polished pontil but no mark.

very nice  -  it's almost impossible to photograph some of these old T. W. patterns well enough to show here on the screen - are these you or non-you ?  ;)

Yes Paul the pattern's very difficult to see even with the naked eye. I got them on Ebay thinking they were uranium but I didn't read the seller's description properly and they aren't  ::), they weren't expensive so I'm happy to have bought them.
