Nic the colours I have based my thoughts on were all in the textured and knobbly range , so maybe there are variations . Shrugs

Oh, aye, everything I've written is just from my own experience too - WF were quite widely variable with some of their colourways.

Thanks the three of you for the info
From knowing little about hambones I now know a little more
9656 is the hambone and 9572 is the shorter version of 9571 bud vase
9656 is wider by an inch and heavier than 9572
The 9572 above is in lilac and 1974 was the only year it was used
The 9656 above is willow green (from the photo you can see a trace of green Now it has been pointed out in real life you can see the green Especially if you look at the edge of the encased glass ) This colour was used 1965-1967
The whitefriers.com site catalogues dont list everycolour that was used on the 9656 & 9572 which confused me
I found this site handy for names and years of colours although as it says its work in progress
http://www.whitefriarsorg.org/a2-information/colour-list.htm
Last of all I found out that contary to what a lot of people seem to think the 9572 is not a 9571 with its neck shortened The 9752 is in its own right a different piece as it is 1/2" wider at 3 1/2"
I bet there are some 9571's with broken necks that are now 9572,s but only measure 3" across
