Some of the items up for bid could easily reach or exceed the $10,000 mark. These will be led by a circa-1890 English cameo art glass vase signed George Woodall and marked Thomas Webb and Sons. The 8 ¼-inch-tall vase has a raisin-colored background with white cameo carved overlay featuring a woman reaching overhead while carrying a basket. It’s a fantastic example that should bring $15,000-$20,000.
