Hello, I wondered if anyone could shed light on this piece. There is a sticker on the base which reads Mackintosh Falkirk, but I've found nothing researching this. It has a green tint and is overall transparent apart from the white mottling. Thank you

Alistair Macintosh ( no K) Falkirk, quite a lot of pieces online.

Oh dear, that imagined K was really hindering my search

Thank you NevB - that's brilliant!

I was wondering why it had a vaguely Monarty look.

Well spotted Nev.

Alastair is a very well known artist. Worked at Caithness for a good while, and created several of their important designs. An expert in reticello, which I was priveliged to watch at the Edinburgh Conference. Some more info about him here.
