Sand Coloured Texture Vase
« on: February 07, 2010, 07:35:18 PM »
This is a very detailed small vase.  The vase measures 19cm in height, base 6.5cm dia. and the top dia. 7.1cm.  It has a glass swirl around the neck of the vase.  Please can anyone identify this vase.     Kind Regards

It's a scavo (i.e. looks like it's been excavated) piece, probably from the Balearics - more about them here, Otis: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,19864.0.html

(mine coincided with Ivo's post but the x-reference to the earlier topic is useful :))
