Thanks for looking, I'd be very surprised if it was Monart, :o ;D ;D

If you want I will give you £75 for it an take the chance ;)

Hi,
Similar shape but not quite there and the base doesn't look right for Monart - in my opinion it's not, but no idea who! :)

Not what I would recognise as surface textured Monart, although I can see why one might think it could be - the texture on the surface is similar to the mossy texture of some enamels inside the vessel walls.
And the base is completely wrong.
If it is Monart, it's a real scarcity for several reasons (including being of only one colour) and probably worth a lot more than £75.
I reckon I'd take the £75, Keith. ;D
-
Not Monart (IMHO), as Roberta and Sue have already mentioned, the base is all wrong for Monart.
Plus the top of the neck on this vase is more flared than the Monart shape CB.

Never seen a Monart piece with a polished rim, it's quite light and I thought Monart is usually hefty, ;D p.s never sell anything just in case! ;D

I hadn't noticed or read the "polished rim" - so even more less Monart-y. ;)
