« on: September 26, 2009, 10:14:25 AM »

It has a polished pontil/casing at the bottom, appears to be mould blown, and has some tiny/burst bubbles present.

Its about 19cm high. Very kinda camp/kitsch

Love to know its origins. Im stumped :(

I think we're really going to need to see a photo with this.  Can you upload one?  Just reply and add an attachment underneath.  Look forward to seeing it!  :)

Hello and welcome to the board.

Can I ask if the picture you've posted is your own or one you've re-used from eBay? (it has the eBay watermark bottom right). If it's from your own eBay sale listing that's fine, but if the pic is from someone else's sale (even if you bought the item from them) we'll need to remove the picture as it breaches our copyright policy on the board.  If we remove the picture you can add a link to the sale listing if it's still available instead.
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd
