The Tigger vase (not an official name) above is in the 60's section in the Discovery Museum, Newcastle.  ;D

I've got two of them now. Lol.

I did see one ebayer claiming that the Tigger vase was made by Opaline Florence but I've never seen one with a label yet. Still looking...

Anne, yours does look like the ones made by the ones bearing the 'VB Opaline Florence' label.

It was made by Imperial Glass. I think it was £5-8 or something, crazy. ;D

There was one on ebay recently described as a candy dish.
