Notes : This is a classic Stuart style. which was used across a number of different designs; we have had both trumpet vases with a ‘straight’ mouth. and the more extravagant. almost triangular ‘fazzolletto’ vases (after the Italian for handerchief) over the last few years – this combines elements of both.
