So you did get to Birmingham then, Keith  ;)

I did pick up your little vase and the pink Guernsey glass vase too, but don't know what yours is, sorry.

Shame I don't know what you look like, I would have said hi to you. Also, shame about the weather that kept so many dealers away. I caught the train and was back home in Cannock 10.15.

Hello Della,I'm afraid you were on your way back by the time I arrived,there were only 4 dealers left and 2 of those were packing away bit of a wash out but still picked up a few pieces,will visit my favourite shop later in the week to make up for it,maybe see you at Feb's fair,Keith.

Iridescent Caithness,new to me,then again so's most things!the 'weak' iridescence reminds me of Royal Brierley studio,Keith.
