White Friars Amber Vase?
« on: May 30, 2018, 08:20:54 AM »
Any opinions would be welcome for this Amber vase, I think it’s very similar to some white friars vases and bark pattern but the white friars appear to have a clear base and edge while this is Amber all the way through. It’s around 12 inches tall. Thanks Mike.

Looks like a Davidson Luna vase to me. A base shot would be helpful

Thanks Christine, I discounted Davidson Luna due to this being smaller at the base and larger at the top plus the moulding at the top. Unfortunately I don’t have any more piccies at the moment but I checked the base it was unmarked, and around 12 inches high. Thanks Mike
