Uranium Glass Punch and Judy
I love love LOVE these uranium glass pressed moulded Punch and Judy paperweight figures. They’re just fabulous, and glow incredibly brightly under the UV light.
Made 1873-1876, by John Derbyshire in Salford.
A green pressed glass figurine of Judy sitting in an armchair on an integral circular base, both hands in front of her, her right leg crossed over her left and her cat by her right side, standing beside the chair.
Also a green pressed glass figurine of Mr Punch sitting in an arm chair, on an integral base. He holds his stick in his left hand and rests his right hand on his stomach. Toby the dog, wearing a neck ruff, sits at his left side.
Both of these figures stand at approximately 17cm in height, and a pair of these are even in the collection of the V&A museum!
