Webb - Thomas Webb (Stourbridge) Empty Thomas Webb 'Flair' 1960s

Post by Davee Mon Oct 11, 2010 7:44 am

Should have been selling not buying today but I couldn't resist this one. I think its a Thomas Webb Flair range vase from the 1960's but as its unmarked I wasn't sure. It stands a foot high and weighs 1.5 kg.

I found the answer with help from GMB, it is a Webb vase from the 1960's flair range. Happy

One of the many Stourbridge glass companies that no longer exist.

Webb's Flair range designed by David Hammond & Stanley Eveson in the 1960's. These are big chunky pieces of glass, a bit of a departure for Webbs from their more reserved traditional ranges.

Purple and blue 12" each, amber 9" and an impressive total weight of 5kg

Webb - Thomas Webb (Stourbridge) Empty Arts Crafts Slag Glass vase - polished pontil - Webb, Bronze

Post by gonkquin Wed Oct 18, 2017 8:43 pm

Going through my glass collection and after ideas!! lol..

Had this absolutely years - and probably one of my favourites!

It stands about 16cm tall and whilst I figured it was just an end of day vase - then wondered about the polished pontil mark to the base! Any suggestions I could investigate please would be welcome!

Possibly Webb 'Brain' glass. Search 'Brain glass' and you may spot it or similar.

so upon searching Brain glass... i got too excited at the possibility it was Loetz... but the rim was just not right!...
But low and behold, it perfectly fits the pics I've seen when I researched Webb... and in fact it is called Bronze - c1880.
Now, to put it carefully back into my cabinet! lol
Cheers loads
