Jindrich casually refers to the Veliskova vase with the "pouch," as a "kangaroo" vase, for obvious reasons! I know you are a fan of this vase yourself David! Jindrich seemed to really enjoy his visit and was a polite and helpful visitor to England as always! I am glad the photographs came out well. I am in one of them somewhere.. probably talking to a stallholder, in hope of a bargain..... We missed some of Czech glass items that were swooped on in the first hour, due to getting a bit lost... but managed to find some very nice pieces and to meet some interesting people like Nigel (Benson) and Mark (Hill). As a memento of the day I did find a very nice Emanuel Beranek vase in great condition. The sellers all had great displays going and there was plenty to see for one day, something for everyone. (I attach pictures of my own M. Veliskova "kangaroo" vase anyway, partly for clarification, also to celebrate a lovely design!)
