    Hi all, Happy New Year!

    On my weekend thrifting adventure I found this vase-picked it up because the moriage/slip design and color intrigued me. It is 7.5"H. It says TIBER, Made in England with a scratched "E" on the base. I can't find anything similar through Google Lens or by researching the name or style. I found the word Tiber associated with Royal Winton, but this is nothing like any of their items. I would really appreciate any help identifying possible maker and age. Thanks as always :)

    That started as a plain green vase by Winton. Someone embellished it, probably in the 70s.

    Think string art. It was a Thing.

    There appears to be green on the “string“ part… Maybe the decoration is original to the vase?

    Took a closer look with my loupe. You are correct! There are several areas where the green is on the slip decoration and not underneath.

    Oh, OK, I take that back. I've not seen a Winton vase with that weird string.
