The Great Troika "Chimney vase" dilemma for you!!!
Should I or shouldent I???? I realy dont know what to do about this one!
Its this vase I am chasing on ebay. Now its Troika and I have dated it to the late 60's by its style and design, and its by the artist Marilyn Pasco. At auction in the UK this would probabally fetch about £500!! But this one is for sale in the USA at a current bidding cost of £222 and it finishes at about 8pm tonight. Here is the vase!!
I have told myself not to go for it if it goes above £250 because there is the shipping fee from the US to be considered in this, which is not cheep. Mum thinks this vase is "Pig ugly" In her own elequent words, but I think its absolutly gorgeous, and the fact its a genuine 60's piece makes this vase highly collectable, and a good investment....but I dont know what to do!!
Please help lovely folks! x its decision time!!

Hi Steven!
No I dident get it, unfortunatly...the bidding was well well above my head and sold for $500!!!!!!!!! But it was to be expected as this was an early piece which is much sort after! I did swap over to a smaller Chimney vase that was much more in my price range and slightly later at 1976 and I got that one!!! YIPPPEEEE!!!!!! Glad you like it though! Someone will recieve a lovely vase this week!! Have a lovely evening!! Vix |
