Hi,
I'm trying to identify a chunky heavy textured vase.
It's clear, tapers out slightly, has a bark-like surface texture, rounded off rim.
But the base is curious as it has a 3-D flower, like the tudor rose, embossed on its base.
Any ideas what it is and how old ??? It's 17cm tall.
Thank you! Sam  :)

Hi Sam, welcome to the board!

Thank you for the clear base pic, but I guess we will need a pic of the whole piece as well :)

Thanks Anne and Michael,
Anne I think you're right, thanks for the previous links.
There's another photo - it's a clear ripple vase (no tinge of colour)... sounds like Bagley! :)
