專家說明

The substantial blue john specimens used in this impressive vase or urn appear to display the distinctive character of the 'Old Dining Room Vein', discovered in the Blue John Cavern, Treak Cliff Hill, Derbyshire (see, T.D. Ford, Derbyshire Blue John, Ashbourne, 2000, pp. 32-34.)
A vase of near dentical design, retaining a larger alabaster-mounted plinth, was advertised for sale by Stair and Company, New York, in The Antique Collector, November issue, 1989.
