A Superb Webb's Victorian Satin Glass Vase

19th century
Description

A quality, good sized satin glass vase from the end of the Victorian era. The shaped body sits on a raised base with a long slender neck and large, flared and crimped rim. The vase is decorated with a geometric fretwork design in frosted pale blue over white glass and is probably the work of the great Webb's Company. To the base is a broken pontil mark and the glass has a wonderful shimmer in the light. A pleasing and tactile example with a practical use, alongside being decorative in its own right. Dimensions below.

Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1890s:
Rough pontil scar on the base: hand-blown manufacture before modern mechanical finishing.
Cased glass with white lining: traditional multi-layered technique of the period.
Acid-etched satin surface: velvety frosted finish typical of late nineteenth-century art glass.
Hand-crimped ruffled rim: shaped with hand tools while the glass was hot.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This Victorian vase originates from 1890 and is made of light blue satin glass. The piece has a bulbous body, a raised base, a long slender neck, and a flared crimped rim with a white cased edge. A geometric diamond air-trap pattern decorates the frosted pale blue body over white glass, and a broken pontil mark sits on the underside. The vase measures 23 cm high, 13 cm wide, and 13 cm deep. Positioned on a mantelpiece, the vase serves as a decorative display object for fresh cut flowers or short stems. The tactile glass surface catches natural light in a living room, dining area, or study, providing a functional and ornamental accent suited to period interiors.

FAQs

Developed in the late nineteenth century, Victorian satin glass is a type of decorative art glass known for its smooth, matte surface achieved by treating glass with acid vapour.

The mother-of-pearl or air-trap effect was created by blowing a patterned inner layer of glass into a textured mould to trap pockets of air before encasing it in clear glass and applying an acid finish.

Genuine pieces typically exhibit a uniform matte sheen without greasy residues, possess multi-layered cased glass construction, and feature hand-finished details such as folded or crimped rims.

Place the vase on a mantelpiece, open shelving, or a sideboard where indirect light highlights its texture alongside neutral ceramics or timber accents.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and a mild washing-up liquid with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding full submersion or harsh chemical cleaners that could affect the surface treatment.
