4 different sizes of Whitefriars
« on: September 01, 2015, 11:15:05 PM »
So far these are the 4 different sizes of whitefriars I have seen. I know miniatures, regular size ones (around 3 inches) and magnums exist. But the 4th size is pretty unusual to me. Is it really rare??

Hi.  Which is the fourth sized one in your image, and what is the size?

Top left one.. I thought it is a little bigger than a miniature but perhaps it is still considered a miniature..and if it is s miniature- how rare is that? The other two designs of miniatures I ever saw are 4/5 rings of millefiori and the pink rose with yellow daffodils. I have never seen this one.
