I was reading this thread only last night thinking that there's about as much chance of me ever finding a piece of Daum as someone inventing a chocolate teapot that holds boiling liquid. Imagine my surprise at finding a 5" Verre de Jade blue vase at a local boot sale this afternoon.  Luckily the dealer failed to notice (or couldn't read) the clear signature around the side so it cost next to nothing.

I probably wouldn't have looked at it but for the pic of the bowl above, so thank you, thank you to everyone who's contributed to this thread.

Congratulations on your find! Could we have some photos, please, especially nice clear pictures of the signature? That should help us resolve the discussion about signatures that this thread had become.

Erm, I'm afraid I've already listed it on a certain auction website.  ::) I don't want to get this thread bumped to the 'For Sale' area so shall I post the photos on here after the auction concludes? Or if you want to copy the photos from the listing and stick them here, please feel free!

Each letter of Daum is different. So is the positioning of the cross of Lorraine by the look of it.

Don't seem to mind mixing their upper and lower case letters, do they?

Apologies for the blurry second photo; still, the grass behind is in perfect focus (stupid camera)!
