Post by: AJLUNN1965 on March 19, 2012, 09:30:50 PM
Hello Guys!!

Glad to be back!

Anybody help with this ID?? My thoughts are WMF Ikora?? Stands 10" & has a substantial weight. Ground pontil off centre & not concentric!

Thanks
Andy  ???

Identity still currently unknown, although referred to as cellophane glass.
