but if you put candles in them don't let them burn down  :cry: I should have two of each but now only have 1 tall one as it split cleanly in half at the table once the heat got to it.

Actually Rosie in a funny way, it works well now, one large one in the middle and the two smaller one either end of the dining table. I was quite shocked when it just fell into two parts though (too much wine so didn't notice).

How about I sell mine m, ...one as Iittala, one as Dartington, Frank Thrower, one as Ravenhead, and one as Lasisepat? 
List them all the same time and see which one sells the quickest???
Have I missed any potential makers out, 'cos I have got 6 of them???  :24:

and obviously I meant Iittala  ::)  - note to self...do spellchecks
mmm, the only evidence we have so far is that they were produced by Lasisepat and also Ravenhead.
Would that be a correct summary?

Carters is like Worthpoint based on online auction sales, therefore not to be relied on.

I'm not 100% certain about Lasisepat, because that had a label on the smaller vase (Lotus) but no illustrated documentation, however, Ravenhead does have boxes for both sizes, with the picture clearly displayed on it, so at trhe moment, that is the only attribution I feel fully comfortable with.
