Well I took Frank's advice and carried on cleaning it, much more environmentally friendly than binning it.  Half an hour of serious scrubbing with steel wool and here is the result. It actually looks quite handsome.   So a happy ending! javascript:void(0);
Thanks to all.

That vase will always hold a special place in your heart now Iain...all the work that went into scrubbing must have meant something!   ;)

Christine, take your eyes of my uranium!  I don't have much, but it's mine!  :mrgreen:
