Topic: Amber/Gold knobbly vase

[Kez]

Hi, this knobbly vase is 9.5 inches high with a ground and polished pontil. It is an amber/gold colour. I have been advised on the Whitefriars site that it is not one of there's. Can anyone ID please.

Did anyone say why it isnt W/Fs and is the colour of your picture a true likeness ? jp

Hi JP, Yes, the height and colour is not consistent with the patterns made. In my eye, the colour in the photo is a pretty good match.

Oh, and also the knobbles are not defined enough, kez

It was me who says it isn't Whitefriars. The colour is not good for FLC Gold, they were not made in Amber or any similar colour.  The shape and height does not conform with any of the W/f patterns ( especially in the FLC Gold range).

Hi Emmi, also now I compare the base of this one, there is no ground ring around the pontil mark as there is with my W/Fs ones. Kez

sorry to be thick  -  but what is a ground 'ring' around the pontil mark

[Kez]

Well, what I mean is , where the piece has been ground flat at the base so it stands straight , I am only guessing that as I am no expert. kez

So perhaps it would be good to have a photo of your base to aid identification?

Do you mean from a different angle than photo 2 ?
