'wavy-rimmed' greenish glass vase for id
Paul S.:
jp and dinkelpip - thanks for the input. In fact the guy at the boot sale said he thought this was W/Fs, but I really wasn't sure, so didn't mention it in my post. I only have Lesley Jackson's book on W/Fs, and none of the 'Wealdstone' pieces shown have a wavy top like my vase - so I had rather wandered off that direction. I will now look at the full catalogues to see for myself.
In fact I don't think Emmi has gone too far, so looking forward to her comments when she does surface. Are you suggesting she might badger me into selling my hard won pieces, again - is there no respect for us less mercenary members of the GMB. ;)

:P Absolutely none at all, Paul. Can't be doing with mercenaries. :angel:

LOL! Are you suggesting I have been away with the fairies for all those years John? I probably have .!
As for the vase, I really don't know. It looks as if it should be W/F, colour looks good, but blowed if I have seen it before, and can't find it in any catalogue. I also associate those wavey rims with Stromberg...............hope you've got a shelf for "mystery" items Paul! :ac1:
Paul S.:
thanks for your thoughts Emmi :) - The answer to your question is, yes - I do have a shelf for unattributed items ;D - but being chronically short of patience always, if I can't find an attribution after six months, then unknown pieces mostly get shoved back into the charity shops. However, for those that have age (and scare me that I might be giving away something rare), I do keep for somewhat longer. When you collect too much glass, occasionally some things have to be 'got shot of', otherwise there is no space at all. (As it is, I have things standing inside things standing inside things) :cry:
I haven't seen remotely enough genuine pieces of W/Fs from this period to really know one way or the other - but my thoughts had been that the colour of this vase was perhaps a little too 'watery'. However, even without an id, I don't think this one will get the elbow - it will probably end up in the shed wrapped in bubble. ;)

I wonder if this could be the same? Looks as if it has a wavey"ish" rim!

You can click on each pic to enlarge, and there is one which seems the same size as yours? What do you think?
