Greg thank you - I've read the comments and Mark Hill says he's had it confirmed as by Bernard Rooke.  He says that BR did some glass for a while but it wasn't his thing and so they are very rare.  I'm so pleased.  I have loved this vase for a long time.  I think I need to get all my studio pieces out now and do a display of those as a celebration of an id after all these years.

Thank you so very much!  I really appreciate you remembering this one.

please, when you do, take pics, can you put them in the Studio Glass threads?
Or create a thread for them, then a link to that can be added?
I just want to see it all and dribble.  ;D
I have a piece by an artist who is famous for something other than glass entirely too, Laisner (architect, sculptor) made very litte glass, but the piece I have is something I fell for before I knew anything about it.
I can remember the thrill of that discovery, and yours has reminded me of all that joy and amazement.
I'm thrilled for you, especially as I have really loved this piece too. 8)
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Happy to help M.

Maybe drop Mark a message I'm sure he would love to see another example.

I think part of the reason it was so difficult to attribute is that there are probably hardly any other examples known!

It's great to be able to put the vase into context, it sure deserves it.

I second the idea of Mark being very keen to see this.  ;)

I've sent him a message with the link to the vase so he can compare.
