deep pink & blue swirl vase ID please. ID = Caithness Glass
« on: August 24, 2015, 02:49:04 PM »
Hello all,
I've seen a few pieces of this around and picked this piece up yesterday. I can't think for the life of me who the maker is. Anyone know please? The rim is flat & polished. Good quality piece too. Thank you for any help.

Definitely Caithness, book also not to hand but think this might be a pattern called Tartan.

Tartan Twist. The book is in my sticky mitts, page 67. :)
