Title: Barolac? Dove
Post by: SantaR on July 24, 2013, 11:14:27 PM

Hello

I wonder if this is Barolac as I have a couple of vases that are and this feels the same.  However, having searched on here and on the web (also under the name Verlys) I can't find a thing and therefore turn to the experts.

It is 22.5cm high, 15cm from wing to beak and 11cm aross the base.

Many thanks

Actually I believe yours is K.R. Haley circa 1947 rather than the later L.E. Smith when Smith aquired the Haley mold. The original Haley Thrush came in crystal & crystal satin while most of Smith's production was in color.

That makes me feel better, I did see the coloured ones on various sites - they are pretty lurid.

Many thanks Ohio!
