Question about this piece
An incredible quality Thomas Webb & Sons cameo double overlaid white over yellow etched and acid washed vase. This particular vase is of a yellow ground with white overlaid flowers, leaves, and vines hand carved into it. The entire vase is hand-etched and finally acid-washed to create a gorgeous matte glass finish. The vase is of baluster form with a tapering neck to a wide body. Marked on the bottom with signature, 'Thomas Webb & Sons Cameo, GEM'. England, circa 1890 Thomas Webb & Sons was an English glass company, founded in 1837 by Thomas Webb (1804-1869) near Stourbridge, England. The company, known originally as the "Crystal King of England," was noted for the high quality of its Cameo glass. Cameo glass is created by a process of etching and carving through a layer of opaque white glass, leaving a white relief design on a darker colored glass body. Some pieces used two layers of etched glass to create a three-color Cameo glass product.
