British (?) footed bowl
« on: September 15, 2013, 08:34:46 AM »
This is a handmade clear-footed rose-to-ruby Victorian or Edwardian vase, I think.  It has a polished pontil scar which still has a slightly sharp edge.
I can't find anything similar on www.20thcenturyglass.com, having initially thought I would under one of the British makers.
Yours sincerely,
Ian

Looks very English to me,the way the rim is finished reminds me of a Webb vase I have, ;D
