Optic ribbed,polished pontil,can't find this shape in my book,help please,Keith.

Height?  Although it doesn't look  particularly a Whitfriars colour ( is the photo representative of what it is in real life?) it may be Wuidart (but W/f made them) or perhaps S and W?  But dimensions may help

[keith]

Sorry forgot to put them on,5.5 inches high and inc' picture that shows colour as it is,Keith

[Ivo]

It looks very Empoli Verde-ish....

[keith]

See what you mean,been looking at Empoli Verde but can't see any with optic ribbing,so the search continues.....

[keith]

Have seen a vase with optic ribbing by E.Hald,Orrefors,possible?or not?Keith.

[MarkHill]

I don't know the shape, and it depends on factors including the colour tone, production techinques etc, but green optic ribbing was also used by Elis Bergh for Kosta during the early 1930s. I'm not saying this one is, but it could be another avenue to pursue....

[keith]

Thanks Mark,will look down that avenue,Keith.
