Post by: millarart on September 14, 2014, 06:07:41 PM
Picked this up from sellers house today lovely colourway with green and blue stripes and bubbles at top with gold adventurine, big 10inches tall, this was giving to sellers parents on their wedding in the 30s, the seller also threw in the Ysart glass book signed by Paul Ysart and his son Salvador, the seller was friend of Salvador his wife Mary and Paul Ysart  and called Paul  granddad , she also told me and Keith some interesting things about the ysart and gave me copies of all the ysart new and Monart newsletters and even a copy of the piece in the paper when Paul died,

Okay Miller. Turn your head around and check that bulge about halfway down. Does it look like there is a horseshoe up there? I can't believe your find! Wish I could find just one Monart here in Canada!
