Pink & Frilly - New, old, interesting?
« on: August 25, 2011, 10:00:08 PM »
I've bought another piece that I can't tell whether it's got some age or a TK Maxx special.

Has a round, polished pontil.

Any opinions appreciated...
Many thanks, Anthony

I don't think you should blame the Chines for that... more like a kid learning the ropes in dad's studio  ;)

Did you show us this the other day? Can we have a base picture and have you shone a UV light on it?

Hi Christine. No - this is the first and only time I've posted this one. Haven't shone a UV light on it. Will get a base picture up - most probably tomorrow.
Many thanks, Anthony

Someone has, which makes me wonder if it's new "old".

Oh ok. I have a vague feeling that I've seen something like it somewhere before but can't quite pin it down. What's the UV light thing about? Should this be able to tell/show me something?
Many thanks, Anthony

I think that one is definitely much older. I was wondering if the one I posted might be 50s or 60s at the absolute oldest...
Many thanks, Anthony

No, it was the same vase design. Did you buy it on ebay?
