Antique Webb's Bronze Glass

A beautiful iridescent glass made by Thomas Webb and exhibited in Paris in 1878. Webb's Bronze was referred to as 'Green Bronze' in their pattern books and earlier pieces sometimes had applied handles, masks, trails and occasionally gilding. Often in a 'Romanesque' style influenced by ancient glass, it was difficult and expensive to produce and hence rare to find these days. Here is a fine vase with applied handles and dimpled body.
