Here's a picture of another Monart miniature, shape C, unusual colouring.

The one I seen was at the Perth 800 year celebration sale at L Burns, if that's the one, I did not bid on it though I did think about doing so. The image below is the piece I wanted and bought at that sale.
Never seen a Monart miniature with a white inner, nice shape and colour.

Definitely the same one - you've now jogged my memory.  It's a bit frustrating with all receipts/docs in storage !!

I remember that piece you bought - I didn't bid on it but was drooling heavily as  I wanted it but couldn't afford it!!

The lilac miniature was purchased through EBay a long time ago and came via Australia.   Paid a lot for it too, but that's another story/

Had a couple with whitish inner, jug and sugar bowl... cane decoration. I sold one of the pair a couple of years ago... one day will add the pics... non-catalogue pieces.

Another Monart OJ miniature (colour code 364) from the same vendor that I purchased mine from.Though he has raised the starting price by £10, this still  is a good price (IMHO).

One more Monart miniature (shape A colour code 260). I was told by the auction house that it was 2 inches tall with no damage. I had a couple of bids on it (on line) but dropped out at £50 and was sold for £90 hammer price.

Two Ysart glass miniatures the first one is a Monart shape BB colour code 390 and is 6cm tall. I viewed this piece, I decided not to bid on it due to a small chip (about 1mm) on the rim.

The second one (IMHO) is Vasart or Strathearn, though listed as Monart, the vendor does say he is not 100 per cent sure.
