    I can always remember this little vase occupying a space on my mother treasure shelf since the early 60s.
    Having passed on recently, I thought it was my duty to keep this piece in the family.
    A beautiful colour and about 20cm tall.
    Enjoy

      It's not Whitefriars, sorry. I would try Scandinavian, most likely Aseda, Sweden.
    2. Cpomedx Cpomedx, 8 years ago
      It would seem to be the case.
      I thank you for your information.
    3. Cpomedx Cpomedx, 8 years ago
      Any thoughts on year of manufacture?

      Yes I would say as Della did -- Aseda, Sweden. I think they also call or refer to this as a * Bone Vase *

      Early 1960's, so probably new when your Mum bought it. The factory was taken over in 1974 & then went bankrupt in 1977.

      Many thanks for the correct information. Much appreciated. There is another large blue vase in my pictures that I can't identify. . .?kosta
