Hi Christine - I've had a feel of the nipples and there's a definite protuberance ;-)

Does this tell you anything?

I've also got a water jug - but this has a big ground out polished pontil to the base.

There's a lovely ring to both of them...

I have two of the glasses but they're irregular sizes. Does this signify anything?
Many thanks, Anthony

I don't know. It certainly looks like the amber Webb's glass.

Hi Keith - sure, no problem. I'm out tonight but I'll try and get a pic up tomorrow evening.
Many thanks, Anthony

Thanks for posting these. Here's a pic of the two glasses side by side - not sure if it's obvious from the picture but they are different heights and the one is more flared than the other. I bought all three together. Do you think they're just a mis-match?
Many thanks, Anthony

They may have just been bought at slightly different times, i.e., one is a replacement.
