Signed Dartington Crystal Football League 100th Y. Capetoni UK Art Glass Trophy

Signed Dartington Crystal Football League 1900–2000 Y. Capetoni UK Art Glass Trophy
 

Product Description:

This rare Dartington Crystal sculpture is a distinguished commemorative piece celebrating the 100th Anniversary (1900–2000) of the Devon & Exeter Football League, one of the UK’s historic regional football institutions.

Expertly handcrafted in England, the crystal features:

A polished teardrop design with an etched footballer in motion

The official centennial engraving and league emblem

A blue Dartington label confirming origin and craftsmanship

Most notably, it is signed by Y. Capetoni, whose signature is discreetly inscribed at the base a rare and undocumented detail that elevates this piece beyond standard commemoratives

The presence of this artist’s signature suggests a limited production or special edition, making it a highly desirable item for collectors of British football memorabilia and fine crystal art.

Why It Stands Out:
Not mass-produced – signed pieces are exceptionally rare

Historical relevance – tied to a century of grassroots football

Artistic merit – combines sport, sculpture, and English glassmaking tradition

Collector appeal – ideal for display in trophy rooms, offices, or curated collections

Expertly handcrafted in England, this art glass piece

Features:

A blue Dartington label confirming authenticity

A signature attributed to Alfred Cabridoni, enhancing its collectible appeal
