Early Whitefriars vase c.1876 in color
« on: March 24, 2019, 12:26:43 AM »
A blue opal version is pictured in Leslie Jacksons book WHITEFRIARS GLASS plate 14.
The black & white photo does not do it justice. Here is a color photo of a straw opal version.

Nice, but is it blue at the bottom or yellow?

This vase is opalescent throughout. the foot takes on a yellow color because it is much thicker than the body. Of course the fine threading in the upper portion is turquoise.
