Thanks for the reply, i found this vase below which is so similar in shape it made me think it could be Okra. The base however is very different, i thought i read there has been Chinese copies of Okra but i may be mistaken?

It was the base that put me off, some Okra pieces have marks although a lot just had labels so we need an Okra expert  ::) ;D ;D

It was the very thick, heat-finished, nearly-frilly rim put me off Okra.
We've attacked its top and its bottom so far. ;D
Can anybody deal with the inbetweeny bits?
I suspect China myself. They're getting better and better, all the time. :)
