Title: Help please with identifying a large multicoloured vase
Post by: taylog1 on March 01, 2009, 04:49:18 PM

Fifth time lucky with this post

I don't hold out much hope with this piece, but I'm clearing out space through selling bits on Ebay and it would be good to suggest an attribution.

It's about 15 inch tall.
The multicoloured swirls (I bought it at a car boot sale some years ago because it looks so like the old marbles I used to play as a kid !) are thinly cased in clear and then there's a matt acid effect on top.

There's a pontil mark on the base, but no grinding and not signed.

Any thoughts gratefully received.

Gareth

This looks rather like the Israeli-style decorated pieces someone had a while ago Gareth, a quick search brings up a few topics which might be worth comparing yours with:

I might be totally wrong of course!  :P
