I am afraid I am not qualified to give a value. However I will say that I have never seen a little jug which matches the vases, so that is an exciting find. I don't know whether you live in Auckland - on the coming Sunday there is a "Crown Lynn Roadshow" where two experienced valuers will be available to value pieces. It is at the New Lynn RSA, 2 Veronica St, 11.30-2.30. There is a $5 fee for each valuation, as the event is a fundraiser for the new Crown Lynn Museum.<br /> http://www.eventfinda.co.nz/2015/crown-lynn-roadshow/auckland/new-lynnVal Monkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564133844683942529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2880978462637000167.post-13903792562403552072015-11-09T17:49:27.050+13:002015-11-09T17:49:27.050+13:00Hi Val I have just found a little vase like the on...Hi Val I have just found a little vase like the one in your picture at the top, with no base markings, just the sticker. it is more of a greenish colour than yours, and has a matching jug the same size. I'm hoping you can tell me what they are worth? I just found them in some things from my great aunt. I googled them, and your blog from 2013 was the only thing that came up. Hope you can help me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2880978462637000167.post-53235874396825441482013-01-27T14:53:11.396+13:002013-01-27T14:53:11.396+13:00Thanks Ev.

Re the sugar bowl, after your comment I remembered I have two LOVELY Taranto desert plates, plain white with a serene and stylish wide grey-blue band. If I thought it was possible I would find a whole dinnner set in that pattern, I love it. <br />Val Monkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564133844683942529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2880978462637000167.post-73220836853557513992013-01-27T14:49:53.979+13:002013-01-27T14:49:53.979+13:00Tony you are right... thank you.

I won't start collecting.
