Topic: Help I.D vase. Scottish Vasart?

[Paul_lower]

Hi all,
           I have had this vase for a couple of years in the loft, away from the children, i have seen similar pieces, but not in this shape, have seen lamps by Vasart cloisonne in the same colour, but not like this, could any body help please.

Hi,
Not Vasart and probably not Scottish - I have seen the odd few in this cloisonne that I suspect are the same maker but have never been able to identify who - sorry!

I think the effect is often called soft crackle; that may help in an ID search

I've seen something similar in red, with a Murano label on. It was quite lightweight, compared to Vasart/Monart, and (obviously) not any sort of Ysart shape.
This vase also isn't an Ysart shape and the base finish is wrong.

Another name for this crackle technique is primavera.

doesn't that mean Spring??                   Didn't Bottichelli  knock out something called Il Primavera - includes a girl called flora I think.
Sorry, know nuffin about this piece though.

Primavera means a whole load of things, but also the plunging of the hot gather into cold water to create this effect.
Michael Harris called it "crizzle", a term also used to describe old glass that has quietly gone and fractured itself into little squarish chunks held together by a wing and a prayer.
Monart called it Cliosonne.

well, I prefer to look at Botticelli
