Crikey, I had a shock when I saw the 'opaque" look. I agree yours looks a bit bottom heavy, but I have seen the W/F ones on occasions look VERY similar. However, Nic, it's your vase and you are handling it etc. so maybe your instincts are right. Dunno. Still looks very W/F to me. colour is good, height is good, pontil is good so.....? But we all know that there was a lot of Scandinavian influence during Baxters early days at Whiteriars and vice versa, but I've had a lot of Holmegaard light blue glass and generally it has seemed a bit brighter in tone than Whitefriars Arctic Blue. Very subtly so, but there is a difference. Maybe you'll have to put it aside for a while until you have a similar item to make comparisons. Emmi
