Hello all.  I work in a charity shop in Wirral, UK and we've had this vase handed in.  I know very little (err make that nothing) about glass, and am therefore hesitant to shove a 50p sticker on it and put it out for sale.  It is signed so I thought it may be collectible.  Anyway, I like it and wanted to find out more, so any information you can let me have would be most welcome (if it is worth 50p I might buy it myself!)

Oh, I forgot to mention, it is about 14cm high, 14cm wide, and 5cm at the base tapering up.

Hi, it's a very pretty vase but I don't recognise it.  The sig looks like Blume 2001 at a guess if that helps anyone else to help you?
Certainly it looks like Bl... 2001 to me.
Hopefully someone will come along and recognise it :) for you.

Hi, thanks for the response, it does look like Blume and it is 2001, there is a Christian name as well, but that is really unreadable (do Doctors make vases? ;D).

This is the picture of the whole signature, sorry it's a bit blurry!

The picture of the signature is too small to be able to read it. Here's instructions on how to post pictures...

Good luck on the sale...
