RAY:
just acquired this vase off ebay its 4" high and 3.5" across the base and is very freaky with and ghostly figure in the base of an old woman, looks like Queen victoria, which i say would be impossible to do, it has been done on black glass medallion with silver leaf then pushed up into the bottom of the vase with a snapped of pontil, the rim of the vase has a black glass trail a round the rim, anyone seen anything like it?

cheers Ray

Hi,

Your vase looks Italian to me. While I see some resemblence to the Queen, I think that it might be an accident.  Some people see shapes in the clouds or inkspots, you're seeing them in glass!

Ray, Do you still have this piece ?
It is extraodinary.
I admit I can't see Q Vic. :roll:

svazzo:
Interesting piece for sure!

If you say it's The Holy Virgin, you could claim divine intervention and sell it for a fortune!  :wink:  :lol:  :lol:
