Old-fashioned


This vase - inherited from my Mother-in-law, is one of my favourite possessions - it looks so old-fashioned. Is it the colour, pattern or shape that makes it seem from another era?

It's beautiful, and unusual. I like the way you've used the little detail on the neck in the pattern, lovely.

This is gorgeous, Nicky! Has an oriental feel to it. FYI Hairy coconuts are the husk inside I believe!!
