    The label on this vase was a pleasant surprise as it wasn't included in the description. it is incomplete but shows no signs of being removed or reapplied. That is to say, no creases or tears suggesting it has been anywhere else other than here. To achieve this level of mangled completeness would seem out of the question for any seller or collector.

    At least two examples of this spots and stripes décor have been posted here - this is an interesting addition, I think, to the admirer, as the complexity of the décor can be seen in the differences between the three. This is more "cut up", more even and not just "bottom-up", and has some nice floaty bits of what we are calling découpage.

    Not everyone will like this or my post on this subject but pace for those who might.

    We could build criteria for the acceptance of labels which might include a minimum number (3?) (2?) on accepted and uncontemtious décors, with no signs of removal, and leave the n=1 examples to the "interesting pile".

    Along with my balance test for simple long necked vases, this will form part of my own set of criteria.

    This is 16cm high x 13cm in max diameter with a white metal mount and early plastic handle made to appear like wood.

      Nice example, and appropriately labeled.

      Whilst I love this décor itself, I'll always have an extra special liking for something designed for daily household use. A wonderful find, Ian.

      I really like art glass biscuit barrels - this is a great one, Ian!
