The red and blue vase here are the same mould although the red has been clear cased and the blue has not.
Strangely the red vase has an upper case B in the base mould; why for I do not know.
The green vase, although a different shape, is also from the same maker. There are similarities in the base and the bobble number and spacing is the same around the lip and base.
I am sure these are Tajima Glass although I have only ever seen them with a Made in Japan sticker, or a distributor's sticker like Enesco.
They have the typical Tajima bird bath base and common Tajima colours.
The cylindrical cased vase is as yet not identified.
The blue is a Tajima blue but because of the white internal casing it looks quite different.
The base has a flat, flame finished look to it like some of Tajima's simpler blown vases, but the evidence is not enough for a Tajima attribution.
So, boring stuff over, I will say "I LOVE DALEK VASES!"
Such vibrant colour!
Karen,
I'm really loving all of your wonderful vases you've been posting. Really great looking vases, as well as really great colors.

I love reading your threads, Karen, such a wealth of knowledge and obvious study, so beautifully written. And the photos are to die for! :)
Thanks Cpo - glad they appeal.
Scott thanks for the ongoing support!
I'm really not big on lots of evidence based work Katherine, I generally just like looking at stuff, but somehow I have worked some things out and try to pass it on.
You've made me feel all warm and special now. Thanks so much!
Dito what Katherine said. Spot on. :)
Thanks to you too OGF!
