Better luck next week :). Try a trip up here, for once Norfolk/Suffolk seems to be providing some nice finds >:D. Perhaps it is making up for me missing out on Cambridge Glass Fair this autumn (though my dad appears to have bought half the W/F that was there :-X.).

Tim, did you happen to get to the 20th Century Design sale at Gazes at the weekend? I couldn't get up and there looked to be some lovely things.... :cry:

Erm...er...Yes! That is where some of these came from ::). Well I am only 5 miles away... The Whitefriars was going for silly money, some examples;
Kingfisher TV vase £200
Kingfisher hooped vase £240
and a pair of damaged (one quite badly) Cenedese "Aquarium" bookends went for £160 :o. But I got the Dartington that I really wanted (and finished up with the Sowerby posy bowl, Sklo Union vase, another unidentified which I haven't got round to posting yet and this green swirly vase by Ourglass (helpfully clearly signed ;)) as well.

Tim - you're right that Carnival doesn't "craze" with age. The marks on the exterior of that Four Flowers Vt bowl are actually rather typical for the pattern. They are features of the pressed glass manufacturing process. They're not "straw" (shear) marks though (there is only one of those on a piece and it would be on the interior).
