Patterned green cylinder vases - ID = Snowflakes, China
Paul S.:
Probably something like stem vases - 29 cms. tall and about 4.5 cms. wide - with clear unmarked circular bases. I've a horrible feeling they are very recent, and make me think of Habitat/Chinese/T. K Max or similar, although I never frequent these places. They came from a b.s., and the reason I bought them was because one guy had a pair for a lot of money - then I saw this pair for a couple of quid, so thought I had better buy them and waste two pounds rather than find out later I had missed something good. If anyone recognizes them, shall be grateful for an attribution please. Thanks as always. Paul S.
PAUL H:
Hi Paul.. I think they are recent Chinese production maybe 'Dalian'
Paul S.:
ughhhhhhhhh - thanks Paul. I thought as much - oh well back they go to the charity shop. Just goes to show that I shud stick to what I know (which obviously isn't much at times) cheers Paul S.

Paul S.:
thank you Anne - I sensed they were modern, but greed and lack of experience made pick them up just in case they had a value. Something doesn't have to be old to be worth having, but 'being buried in the sand for a thousand years' does help. Oddly enough, in my travels round the boot sales I hadn't come across them before, so maybe they are not that common. They will go to a new home where they will be appreciated. Paul S.
