That's fine - thank you  :clap:  mine is 9cm width at the base as well and 10" tall.  I just wanted to check dimensions.  I was sure mine was right but wanted to check the base width.
Many thanks

mine doesn't have a rounded up rim btw, I meant it looks proportionately just like the cobalt 10" vase in the post above and no up rim (just for reference).

How do you tell the difference between Casade gulvases and the original ones by Holmegaard?
Is there a price difference between the 2?

Someone else will have to help with weights of known Holmegaard examples. From what I have seen where weights have been given, the Cascade ones are significantly lighter perhaps as much as half the weight or less.
 This may be purely because the only ones I have seen are single colour i.e. not white on the inside and not cased in clear glass. I now have two of these and they are virtually the same weight. Both are single colour and uncased.

Thanks for the info!
Is there a notable difference between prices? I'm trying to buy the original Holmegaard pieces but don't want to be caught off guard by a "cheap buy"

I have never seen a piece sold as "Cascade" and of course most people don't know there's a difference. I have seen pieces which appear to be Cascade from clear descriptions achieve prices on a par with Holmegaard pieces. Again the vendor probably did not know. They all of course follow Otto Brauer's design.
