Paul, possibly not wrong.  I seem to remember ref the Tango Glass exhibition, that there was some comment about Tango glass representing the colourful dance of the Tango.  And I can't remember if the outcome of this was that there were pieces denoted as Tango Glass that didn't have two colours of glass ... will try and find references.  So I could well be wrong  :-[

You may be right m,perhaps the pink was just for the circles on the lid,there is no sign of sharp flakey damage to the orange though and it hasn't lifted off any of the black,i'll do my best with the photo's but the weathers not looking good tomorrow. ::)

This is as good as the light is going to get today i suspect and it's my naff camera not my wife's better one i can only get my hands on now and then >:(.Anyway looking at it in a more critical light i think m is right and the orange has worn off somehow on the lid although i think it does work well on the eye,a few more points to add on it has a ring to lid and body and the orange is much stronger under the lid.

I haven't found anything you would say was from the same stable yet,but i forgot to ask why do you think the lid number is different from the base? cheers.
