Hi,

Does the colour come from glass frit or some other inclusion that hasn't melted? I ask as it reminds me of some John Orwar Lake or Bengt Orup for Hyllinge

And if so, does the frit glow under a UV light? It's a similar look to my tankard which does.

Patrick, there are bits of the canals where the water is green and bits where it's black and bits where it looks like tomato soup!

No reaction to uv,it is just mottled,specks of green,Keith.

P.s,in the Black Country(where I live)the canals are green!!

Ok,
 It is canal green, good way to describe it with all the small speckles ( algae )..................

Tomato soup in Worsley ..............
