[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 9754312, member: 5833"]Since they were one of the main products of the Tassie workshops, very adjacent indeed. I have imagined that the wax ones were sometimes retained & framed by customers who did not want to go on to the expense of having an 'enamel' version made from the wax.
