Chances are 99.99% it is the same bowl as you saw Keith, chances of two in the same colourway in the same period of time are more remote than a marriage! So we can be certain it is a marriage. The colours did look wrong but that could have been the photo, no genuine match would show colour variation, end of story.

For a marriage the price achieved wasn't that bad - around £150, I think!!!   If perfect, possibly double?

Am I on a completely different planet?
The two "marriages" cannot possibly be the same bowl and lid - the one Millerart shows is burgandy and green, the one Luckyslap shows is golden-amber and green.......

Yes Sue... think so  >:D

The others shown are correct examples. Luckyslap handled another at a fair that is identical to the eBay one - and thus almost certainly the same one that now appeared on eBay.

That's what a wonderful, long weekend's culture-vulturing does to me! Sorry.  :sun:
