A better one of the base

Is this a picture of your vase or a picture of Anne's vase?

Yes, the image was not for the OPs vase. I have removed the image.

createdbear, please add the improved base image for your item.

Hello,
Yes, the 2nd base image was from Anne's vase. Unfortunately, the flash on my camera has stopped working and it is proving difficult to capture a good image. I contacted Anne when I saw she'd put an identical vase on here some years ago. I didn't realise that it was against the rules to use a photo of an identical item. My apologies. I'll try and get a better photo of the base.

Hi Cliff,
Thank you for the suggestion. I had a good look through Alsterfors images but couldn't find one to match mine, although there are pieces that have a similar feel. However, the base doesn't seem right for Alsterfors glass. One of those mysteries I guess!
