Odd blue vase!
« on: November 15, 2008, 05:34:44 PM »
OK - and odd thing.  The vase itself seems quite well excecuted to me, and there is weight to the base.  However the cut away detailing on the sides seems rather badly done!  I paid 50p for it at a boot sale, and am happy just to take it to the charity shop - it just intruiged me somewhat as I couldnt make out what I thought of it!!

TIA

How big is it Chloe? Could it be a fancy drinking glass rather than a vase?

Run your nail over the edge. If it is matt and rough, I have some disappointing news for you.
