Tall blue vase with large pontil and planed edges
« on: September 12, 2010, 09:36:30 PM »
Hi, this is the second time ive posted for help with this vase. The first time i posted it with a Sklo Union vase which everyone was very helpful with. I was informed by the moderater to try and keep things separate as not to confuse things, so here it is again.
Its a cracker in my opinion! It is 36.5cm tall and weights around 1.5kg. The thickness at the rim varies between 11mm and 9mm and it has a large pontil. Around the outside of the vase has a look as if it was planed off to give those un even flat edges. I just think the colour is fantastic in the light as seems to have different tones of blues and some greens. Any help would be great. Thanks

I recall seeing something very similar - and signed - earlier in the year, with gradiated colours rather than just blue, although the signed name escapes me.

I think it might have been a lesser-known British studio glass artist... but don't quote me on that!
