That's quite nice, Gary!
Did you see my really unusual Strathearn bit - a large, clear yellow, optic-ribbed bowl?
(I got upset - nobody who's really into Ysart glass commented at all!)

Can I sneak it into your thread here Gary?

No Ysart diehard is going to skip a Monart decanter,  :thup: so they might have a peek at my bit now!

A nice piece you got there Gary, I had a couple of bids on it. Good to see it went to a Monart collector.

yeah im happy with it, £130 was still a good price even with cracks on neck where someone has tried to force the jammed stopper out, its a big heavy lump and a rare shape, looks nice on display

Hi Gary could you describe the colour scheme, looks green, clear glass with gold aventurine.
May I take a copy of the label,I am attempting to catalogue Monart colour codes, this is for personal research and not for reproduction anywhere else.

Hi Gary,

Still looking for Monart, and unfortunately having to pack all the good pieces away due to the aftershocks down here.
We remain getting shaken and quite bad at times, thats why the decision to pack most of the collection has been taken.
I will list the boxes with the contents!!!!!
Good to see you back in circulation Gary......not that you were out of it!!

Bill

thats not so good having to pack away all your pieces, i havent been collecting any monart for around 4 or 5 years now, just started last month again, i have still been buying some glass just not ysart glass, sold most of my lamps and vases bowls ect a few years back, though have kept some maybe about 20ish lamps and a few boxes of vases and bowls ect, rarer ones or ones i just really like,
