Justin Culina Vase

I found this online and really liked it. There was an inscription and I thought maybe Justin Culina but not knowing how he signed his work just brought it because I liked it. Isn't that the reason to buy anything like this?
The main part of the vase is cranberry with an outer V of clear glass that covers the base but stops just above the waist.
There is a upmarket art shop in New Plymouth that I often go into to look at the nice things I can't really afford and they have some of JCs work in there and the owner allowed me to check the artist signature on a couple of these, well the good news was it is the same!! :)
A big beasty at 500mm high.
