Can anyone tell me what this is on the bottom of these vases. It is blue and looks like old cracked leather or heavy paper. Would the maker put that on there or the first owner. http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r307/Cathiel/base2.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r307/Cathiel/vasebase1.jpg
This bowl was made in Birminham by Mappin and Webb (I think). Can anyone tell me the year? Thank you Grammal http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r307/Cathiel/2.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r307/Cathiel/5.jpg .
On this tray I thought the date was 1908 but have been told it might be later and I cannot find the maker at all. Can anyone help? http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r307/Cathiel/IM000397.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r307/Cathiel/IM000378-1.jpg Thank you grammal
