Antiques & Collectables, Coins, Gold & Silver (14% Buyers Commission)
A large group of various mould-blown glass vessels, primarily in shades of aqua and light green, with several examples in clear flint glass. The collection comprises a variety of utilitarian shapes typical of British glassware from the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. Included are numerous square and round inkwells, some featuring decorative stepped shoulders, alongside various apothecary and medicinal bottles in rectangular and cylindrical forms. Also present are small flat-sided flasks and a larger wide-bodied vessel. The glass displays characteristic manufacturing features of the era, including tooled or applied lips, visible mould seams, and internal air bubbles or seeds. No maker’s marks, embossing, or labels are visible on the items.
