I'd never, in a month of blue moons, have imagined that was RB.
Scandi perhaps, something really unusual and Czech, perhaps, but never, ever RB. ;D

Jokes fall a bit flat when they have to be explained, don't they? 

You can have the blue vase Anne, I want the Svarc. ;D

Sure do Sue! That Josef Svarc vase is fab too, but the blue just does it for me.

Keith, I never doubted you for a moment.  8) 8) 8)

Anne, if I find  a blue one like that, it's yours. :-*

Keith I don't like it in clear, it has to be blue!  ;D  I have one of the Rosice bowls in a different green though.

Sue, thank you, please keep your eyes open and let me know if you see one.  :-*

I will. And I won't forget. It's a strange sort of blue and it tends to jump out at me. :)
