Title: Webb fleur for show .
Post by: keith on March 15, 2016, 01:38:21 PM

Just over 9 inches, a nibble to one of the amethyst tulip stems but the best bargain, well I think so  ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D

I nibble is quite acceptable on something so old and unusual, especially if it is rendered affordable.
What a lovely thing to be able to own.  :)

Hi Keith,

Just thought I would add an alternative shape to your find. Same tulip pattern, same colour but in the smaller, wider shape. But almost as wide as your version is high! Closeup of the signature also shown.

Height 6 inch (15.2 cm); diameter of rim 8 3/8 inch21.3 cm)

If I posted it in the Market Place forum, would you be happy to give me £600 for it??  ;D ;D
