Title: Isle of Wight Cranberry Summer Fruits Signed Perfume Bottle
Post by: mhgcgolfclub on February 12, 2017, 10:24:03 AM

I am pretty sure this is cranberry summer fruits perfume bottle , please correct me if wrong.

I thought I post it as its the only one that I can see that is signed to the base. All the other summer fruits only seem to have a label or are not marked.
This is marked Isle of Wight Glass England 2006.

Please feel free to use any pictures if they are of any interest. I have had a very close look and think its in the hand of Timothy Harris.

Height including stopper 11cm.

I can't make much out of the photo of the writing, Roy. Not even with different sets of glasses on.
Could you try taking it again, with some talc in the grooves, and maybe crop the image a bit more to get the writing bigger.
It is Summer Fruits. Unusual to find signed, probably at the buyer's request.

Yes. Tim's writing. I was able to compare it with another signed and dated 2006 piece, even the date numbers are spot on.

He just forgot to add his name to your bottle when he was doing it. ::)
