Hi Meegs,
welcome to the board :D
Nice little pot, looks like the lady is smoking a pipe? maybe it was for tobacco. Looks c1920s earliest
by her dress. I hope someone may help you more on the origin of the glass. (French perhaps)
Cheers
Andy

Thanks Andy,
I would be surprised if she is that old. She is holding a parasol, and apears to be sitting on the beach in a 50's? bathing costume. Since purchasing her I have seen 2 other similar pots both with stylised fruit lids. One was plain with a small gold band around the lid and the other had been painted in a similar fashion to this only it was extremely worn/faded. There are no makers marks or registration number that I can find on the pot.
Cheers
Meegs

Hi Meegs,
you may be right, i still think she looks more 20s/30s than 50s . they were a little more 'risque' then,
i hope we get a few more opinions ;)
Cheers ,
Andy
