Thomas Webb & Sons, a renowned British glass manufacturer founded in 1837 in Stourbridge, England, is known for producing a wide range of high-quality glassware, including opaline glass. Webb's opaline glass, popular during the 19th century, was celebrated for its delicate, translucent, and often milky appearance. This type of glass was frequently produced in soft colors like white, blue, pink, and green, sometimes enhanced with intricate gilding, enamel painting, or etched designs. The opaline glass made by Thomas Webb was especially favored during the Victorian era, reflecting the period's taste for ornamental, decorative glass. Webb's craftsmanship in producing opaline glass was part of a broader movement that showcased decorative luxury items, and it was often displayed at international exhibitions where it gained acclaim. While Webb is more widely known for its cameo glass and cut glass, opaline pieces from the company are prized by collectors today for their refined beauty and historical significance. 800
