    Hello!.....This a Thrift Store find for approx.$8....its kind thick, has some weight in great condition with no cracks or chips.....but does have a water mark that is hard to remove....there is no apparent signature....the vase is approx. 7.5 in. ht....3.75in. at the widest point......3 in. at the middle.....2.25in a the neck.....I think that it may be Murano due to the controlled bubble design....Please feel free to share what you know.....Thanks! rsz_20231122_200045 (1).jpg 20231118_193849.jpg rsz_20231118_194235.jpg rsz_20231118_194220.jpg rsz_20231118_194353.jpg

    It’s Whitefriars. I’ve got this in ruby and kingfisher. Your colour is flint. I can’t remember the pattern number but it’s a Baxter design, sixties.

    They’re actually decent quality, the photos are doing a disservice.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    You could open a Whitefriars museum, or exhibit!
