Title: Green swirl studio vase signature help please.
Post by: brucebanner on April 06, 2014, 04:51:35 PM

Another recent purchase a real beautiful piece of glass, signed to the base.

No idea about this age or maker any help welcome.

It's 4 1/2 inches in height, no wear to the base and a snapped rough pontil, regards Chris.

Am I stating the obvious if I say the signature looks Chinese (to my eye anyway)?

 :o

The bit you see as Ex, I see as a man struggling with a deck chair or umberella, but it might be a logo of a man at a glory-hole.

But now, I can see Exmoor in it. ???

I don't recognise the style at all.

It seems Exmoor make more than just cranberry glass (surely some diversification would be sensible), there was a dark bit on ebay very recently but I can't find it now. The Exmoor Glass website has an 'art glass' section but it does not have anything listed there yet.

Goodness me,  what a coincidence!   I have just mentioned that we had just celebrated our 47h wedding anniversary and this was the next thread I looked at..... this is where we spent our honeymoon,  in Porlock!   :)
