Almost 8 inches tall, signed to the base and heavy, Jill remembers making it  ;D ;D

I like that more than IoWSG pink and blue swirls.
This is pink and blue festoons, delineated by white. ;D
Is there something in it, or is that a reflection, or another coloured section towards the bottom?
Are you thrilled, especially after hobnobbing with the artist yourself over it? :) 8) 8) 8)

Ooh, I nearly put in a bid for this, but got distracted at the last moment! Pleased it went to a glass aficionado.

Did JD make this vase during her stint at RB? I'm a bit hazy about the length of her career in glassmaking. I gather she decided to specialise in it at some point during her general design training, but she now works as an interior designer?

Will look through my notes, she said they had free run to produce their own stuff but as you say she's now an interior designer. There are more pictures of her work on the board listed under British glass.
