I think a "book" price of £1000 is rather over optimistic............the ebay price I gave you is about the norm, although in a Collector's centre I would expect a higher price.  I have the 15" inch version and they are very striking vases. Yes I would agree some of the glass post war up to when the textured stuff evolved, is very undervalued although I see signs of it coming into its own now.

I recently put some groups of this period on My Gallery on www.whitefriars.com, if you'd like to take a look, it is at the bottom of the page

Not sure what Blue though? certainly not Midnight looks nearer to '60s cased Blue but not cased if that makes sense?
