    This Victorian vase caught my attention me due to the distinctive petal shaped top. It is made from a single layer of pale yellow - green glass, & measures 10.5 cm tall, 11 cm across the top rim, & 6 cm across the base, which has a rough, snapped pontil mark.
    Petal shaped top rims like this are typically attributed to Thomas Webb & Sons. However I am not 100% certain about this one.
    It has a weak glow under UV light, despite the brilliant, almost luminous colour in daylight.

      I wouldn't have thought Victorian!
      I believe you of course, but it looks so much more modern to me. 60s even.

      Amazing how funky those Victorian folks were - organic, artisan, & kinda gothic, too!
