Dear Ozmarty It does have a slightly oriental look to it. I have read about 'celadon' glazes and the handles, rim and base look a similar colour. The base is unusual as usually they are either g...
Dear Ozmarty Thank you for posting this link, great reference website. Best wishes - Lisa.
I'm sorry to have left it so long, but I will now post the final chapter of this story. The Bookplate Society have been a real inspiration and I was very proud to receive Volume 10 Number 1 Spring ...
I was elated to receive your comments and identification of this vase. I have viewed the wonderful website featuring Carnival Glass and it's opened up a whole new world of collecting which I had nev...

Thank you so much for even more amazing information! I was particularly thrilled to see a picture of Elizabeth LeRoy Emmet and congratulate you on this fine piece of research. She was very beautifu...
Dear Solver I am absolutely astounded by your in depth research. You have not only solved the mystery, but have now gone far beyond! To link the bookplate to the Isle of Wight is unbelievable. ...
