Smaller version this time only 8.75 compared to the 13.75 monster ! early piece as you can see from original drawings by designer Gwyneth Ashcroft.  ;D ;D

 :) The drawings show the bodies of the vases to be a lot more rounded.
I rather prefer that to the somewhat slimmed down reality.

(ps. you didn't warn me about the p word stuff. :P  ;) )

Are these fairly early? This style always looks a bit '50s to me. Formica and bri-nylon. ;D

Sorry about the lack of warning re the 'P' stuff, yes I think the design is around 82-84 although they may have continued using Gwyneth's designs after that  ;D

'80s!  ??? ??? ???

Hmmm. Excessive frills and bouffant mini skirts...   ;D Perhaps they do fit.
