PLEASE NOTE: YOU ARE PURCHASING ONE VASE, they are a matched set and there are two available. Beautiful Queens Burmese Ware cabinet vases. Made by Thomas Webb & Sons. The etched Registration Number #67648 proves these vases were made on the first run in February 1887 in Stourbridge England. The squat vases stand 3" tall by 2.5". The hand painted design has cherries, vines and leaves. The tops are crimped, one vase has a slightly darker pink top. Using their opal glass mixture they added oxide of uranium and reduced gold creating a light yellow opaque glass with a matt- satin finish. The uranium content causes the green glow when lit.
