I brought this last year off the net but it was pick up only from Wellington, which is a fair distance away. Fortunately my daughter lives there and she arranged to get it for me but was too scared to send it in the post as she has no practice and wrapping this sort of thing and it made it necessary for me to visit, which I finally did last weekend :)
When she picked it up it was very dirty and didn't actually think I would like it. Boy was she wrong especially once it had a good wash.
There is a small chip in the rim but I didn't care it was sooo cheap!
I'm not sure who made it, all the vases I see with similar green drops to the side seem to be in reverse with the blob at the top?
It's also big 320mm high, 112mm across the top and 130mm across the base.
This was a super buy, my guess is Kralik.
It's a big unit for sure! And I love cleaning up a dirty piece to reveal it's beauty!

Thanks Marin yes Kralik was definitely on my mind, just the trails going the other way.....
Thank you Sylvia that last link especially shows a vase that has so much similarities in decor and colour to mine it has to be Kralik.
Funny though they all still have the trails going the other way, which confused me with what I found. :)
