Troika Coffins Gone Mad on eBay
I’ve noticed several times recently that the odd Troika pottery coffin vase appears to have gone sky high recently on eBay. There appears to be nothing special about these vases (regardless of how they describe them) as they are all just standard Coffin vases from the Newlyn period.
Take this Troika vase
At present, you might normally see a Troika coffin retail for between £140-£170 depending on it’s design, decorator and condition. As I write this one’s already at £255 with 3 hours to go.
In the past I’ve seem them go for over £400, which is utter madness.
