Topic: Signed red vase, modern?

[Tigerchips]

I bought this for £2 which I thought was quite reasonable. Probably from Ikea though.  :lol:

As far as I can make out it is signed: "Cal?i Bra?? 04". I presume the "04" is for the year 2004.

It is 10.75 inches high. It has three sides with a frosted exterior. It's also cased with red and clear glass and it weighs 940g.



Any idea of maker?

Thanks.

Hi Tigger,

Could it be by Colin Brown, assistant to James Maskrey?

He is mentioned here;

Bingo, I think that's what it is.  

Many thanks again Deltab.

My mum likes this vase so it must be very nice.  :shock:

"Put that vase down mum, you'll break it". She likes the feel of it apparently.  :roll:

I've tried googling for James Maskrey and Colin Brown but found just a couple of examples of the work James Maskrey does.  

Nothing on eBay either, it must be an extremely rare one off piece worth thousands. If only.  :wink:
