Description: For auction is a lovely cabinet vase made by Thomas Webb & Sons of Stourbridge, England. The vase measures approximately 3 7/8" tall and 2 5/8" in diameter at opposing outside edges of the rolled rim. The base diameter of the foot or pedestal is 2 1/2" in diameter. The vase displays a very delicate footed floriform in a naturalistic 5 pointed flower with an inward rolled lip. It is done in the ever popular Burmese décor with excellent color of pale yellow on the lower portion and a deep dusty pink rolled rim. This happens when the glass blower reheats the piece in the "glory hole" or oven to form the rolled over and pinched rim. The longer the piece is exposed in this manner, the deeper the rose color becomes, yet if overdone, this temperamental glass would fade back to yellow. The vase is finished in an acid matte finish that is quite pleasing with the contrast in color. Thomas Webb & Sons produced some of the finest Burmese glass available and this is also known as Queen's Burmese ware as it was noted for having the Queen's approval for quality. Queen Victoria visited the United States and was gifted a lovely tea set made by the Mount Washington Glass Company. Upon receiving the gift she exclaimed it reminded her of a Burmese sunset thus the name stuck with this type of glassware. The piece is signed with the acid etched mark of "THOS. WEBB & SONS" in an inner circle surrounded by another circle. The outer circle is marked "QUEENS BURMESEWARE PATENTED" although the QUE is rubbed out leaving the remaining signature. There is also not a form number on this piece which must have been rubbed out along with the aforementioned letters. This does not affect the value of this little gem as it is on the underside of the foot The piece is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no chips, nicks, cracks or dings. the vase was made circa 1885-1904.
