Midsummer glass maybe ?
« on: September 28, 2016, 09:55:17 AM »
Hi, the colourway looks similar to some of the Midsummer glass items I have found on line but nothing definite.
8 cm dia x 7.7 tall and weighs 704gr with a ground flat matt base
Any ideas please.

I would have said definitely Midsummer, that pink looks a bit red though. If the colours match this vase then yes.

Very nice weights John , would you know approximately the age of my weight ? as information is a bit thin on the ground.

Midsummer Glass operated for a short time in the 1980s. A board search will give you a bit more info, but there isn't much
