I am really pleased with this find - especially after Sue showing me hers earlier this year on here ;D
Large size Salome vase.
Gorgeous green interior, and lovely iridized effect to lower 1/4 of vase.
28 cm or 11 inches tall
Unusual cut and polished rim.
I like it :)

You just had to get one bigger and better than mine, didn't you? (hoity-tioty sniff).. Well, I hope you're happy with yourself, now you've made me turn as green as the interior.........
:smg: Yay - I'm really pleased for you! :smg:
They're gorgeous and really rather complex. The polished rim is normal though. :sm:
Yours is a nicer shape than mine - I dribbled over one like yours in the Exhibition I saw in Perth. :smg:

Thanks Sue :clap:
Not really one upmanship - just the only one I have ever seen for sale - so had to have it!
And I am now dribbling over this one on exhibition in Perth (in Western Australia that is) ;D
Glad the cut and polished rim is usual for this vase - but unusual for Caithness generally I think??

Not for these thickly cased things

Thanks Sue
lovely bowl - saw it matched my other cut and polished rim vase in an earlier post. Other than these two I have now checked my other Caithness vases and bowls, and find that many of them have cut and polished rims - a Starry night bowl, all of the Cadenza range, the Ebony range, and also even one of the later barrel vases I have from the Images range. All of course as you say the thickly cased items - makes sense when I think about it!
I had never noticed before. :-[

100 lines is in order I think, not just three

Yes, I was going to do 100 lines but my attention span doesn't last that long anymore...... what was I saying?
