Don't Have A Clue About This One
« on: February 25, 2009, 10:20:45 PM »
This is 8 inches tall, weighs 746 grams. Looks Whitefriars Sapphire almost but isn't as I compared it with Whitefriars I already have. It is good quality by the "ping". I took this picture with it laying down when you view it upright the base shows blue not clear. It starts of as thick glass and gets thinner the nearer the top you go. Any ideas anyone? I am not sure it is even old as there is no obvious wear to the base. Thanks, Sue

Modern Bohemian Crystal (from memory).  I've got one in the shed with a sticker on.  I'll photograph it tomorrow for you.  :)

Found an old pic on my computer.   :)  Looks slightly different due to the angle I took the photo.

Not sure how modern, but it feels pretty up to date to me.  I bought mine for about the same price and there was a stack of about 6 of them.   :)
