I bought this vase today, and I "think" it may be Vasart, but it is not signed on the base.
The base has a lovely round ground pontil mark and there is a step down from the foot to the base towards the pontil, and alot of wear around the outer rim of the foot.
Many thanks

Hi Johnphillip,
Monart, Vasart etc are a minefield and I usually stear well clear, but I liked the colours of this one,and it wasn't so expensive that if it is a nothing thing it would be a big disaster.
It would be lovely if it was Monart though.

Well i saw a similar one in a shop a few years ago with a big crack in it but it had a Monart label on the base
but like you i know little about Monart but i do have a couple of real nice ones .

It's Monart, Barbara. Check Frank's site for the shape code.

Hi Nigel,
Thanks so much for ID'ing the vase. I had a quick look when Sue C put the link up, but couldn't find it, so will have a better look tomorrow.
Car all better now and hope the packets have arrived OK.
