[QUOTE="Brian Warshaw, post: 10290390, member: 16674"]…But my gut feeling is that it is something special. It’s a transparent blue glass vase with the overall height of 34cm. The weight is 910g. Photograph [1]. Starting at the rim, the diameter is 67mm; but turned through 90⁰ and it increases to 68.5mm. Obviously, the neck has been squeezed and is elliptical [photograph 2]. As the hand slides a down and it reaches the start of the bowl it becomes concentric again, and all is normal. The ellipse created two scallops 180⁰ apart in the rim photographs [3 and 4]. The foot is clear glass, although it has with wavy lines as can be seen in photographs [5]. There is a pontil scar on the foot, and internal to the vase is a intended large dome, photographs [6, 7 and 8]. There are a few small bubbles in the blue glass photographs [9 and 10]; but no sign of striations. What are the more reflective thoughts of the members? Thank you. 1 [ATTACH=full]516320[/ATTACH] 2 [ATTACH=full]516321[/ATTACH] 3 [ATTACH=full]516322[/ATTACH] 4 [ATTACH=full]516323[/ATTACH] 5 [ATTACH=full]516324[/ATTACH] 6 [ATTACH=full]516325[/ATTACH] 7 [ATTACH=full]516326[/ATTACH] 8 [ATTACH=full]516327[/ATTACH] 9 [ATTACH=full]516328[/ATTACH] 10 [ATTACH=full]516329[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
