Title: Strathearn P3 pink and Gold Sea Urchin
Post by: chriscooper on December 10, 2013, 12:32:54 AM

Not really something I would normally buy for some reason never do well with these, still got a huge D1 Magnum I could not give away in the Summer.
Thought this one a little unusual ? seen them in Orange and Red this one is definitely Pink and Gold also the pontil mark is snapped off and rough and lower than the base so scratches any surface it's moved along which is not good. Frigger/trial piece or just a sloppy second?

I'm afraid that doesn't look like a Strathearn Sea Urchin at all to me.

Probably Murano.

Hi Chris
here is a picture of my magnum Strathearn Sea Urchin in red so you can compare it to yours, my weight has a diameter of three and a half inches. I also have one in green

Here is the blue one I could not give away and you are all right of course  it's not the same at all  :-[ did consider Murano with the gold but the base led me gently away  :)
