But soon after my book was published, this same vase fetched £215...   see p.214, where the angle of the label in the photo looks remarkably the same. :o

They really are very impressive. This looks to be the 7-in (18cm) tall one, but the 5½-in (14cm) tall ones are even scarcer.

There's no less than 7 pieces of cut pearl on eBay at the moment - 2 different sellers. Where has it all sprung from?!

My three have been in my cupboard several years, so I thought 'd try and move them on :-)

Ah right, I didn't know you were one of the sellers Robbo. Hope they do well for you. :)  I have the same diamond-shaped piece as yours but mine has a wee chip out of it.

I have been following them, Robbo  ;)

The rectangular one with 'ribbed' design is of particular interest, although I now think I have every design to include in Chance Additions. But keep looking!

eeek, no wonder my ears were burning. Odd feeling, being mentioned in dispatches. I too love chance glass much to my parent's disgust who brought me up to appreciate good victorian cut glass lol.
