Fazzoletto vases

Laura, do you use a macro lens or anything of the kind? I always find that I have issues shooting good close-up pics.
Oh by the way - here is a pic of my fazzoletto :)
The seller has informed me that there is a partial Venini acid signature on it - it's a small one at 2.75" in height. I bought it for just over 90 euros.
amoilvetro:
pps. I asked a question on an online auction on a fazzoletto with a rough ground pontil. The seller replied that the fazzoletto was delicate and "a rough ground pontil is not unusual on delicate pieces where grinding the base smooth would mean grinding into the inside".
Is this right? None of the real Venini fazzolettos I've looked at on the net appear to have rough ground pontils. (Thanks Laura for the good advice a few posts above too!)

Here are 3 vases in my collection:
The large Orange and White is Venini (2000 - signed+label) and the other 2 are vintage pieces. Personally I like the White and Black the most.

Javier,
My eyes :shock: immediately gravitated to the orange and white one. It figures it is the Venini one! :lol:
Its just outstanding!

Thanks for the comments. I specially like that on the Black and White Fazzoletto vase, the black is actually Matte on the outside and looks like a snake skin pattern, but is shiny inside. Pretty unusual I think.
The Orange Venini fazzoletto vase is the tallest I have, 8 1/4" tall. The color is just sooo bright! After I bought it I saw a Blue and Gold Flecks (also Venini signed) one on Ebay but was outbid. I really wanted that one!
