Trailed amber mottled studio vase signed Hook Kooke - ID = Bernard Rooke

<< < (2/3) > >>

Greg.:
Just to add a little to this vase, it likely dates to the early 70s.

I was talking to a collector of his work a while ago who previously knew Bernard personally and also owned an unpublished (as far as I understand) book of Bernard Rooke's work by Richard & Elizabeth Thorpe dated 2001.

One of the pictures shows Bernard Rooke blowing glass in the early 1970s, so probably slightly early than first thought. I do have a copy of the picture from the book if of interest, although didn't want to post directly on the board due to copyright, although he thinks Bernard wouldn't mind!

So sorry Greg I've only just seen your post.  I would love a copy of the picture please, if you have time.  Thanks so much for the extra information. I really appreciate you sharing it.

Greg.:
Hi M, no worries, sure, if you email me through the GMB, I'll gladly email you the picture from the publication. Any problems just let me know.

flying free:
Hi Greg, sorry I've tried to reply a few times today but keep getting Resource problem messages.
I've PM'd you via the envelope so I hope you received my email?

Thanks again for your help and information.  I appreciate it and it was really good to find out the vase is earlier than I thought.

Greg.:
Hi M, -thanks for your message, the board seems to have been having a few technical issues, I believe Anne is aware of them, apparently the hosting company upgraded the server which may have caused some of these new issues.

The board email function also seems to be playing up, on that note I emailed Anne who kindly offered to forward on the Bernard Rooke photo on to you, this may go to your your email address you registered with when joining the GMB.

Any problems just let me know and I'll try and work something else out!
