here is a picture taken with flash of the same set. Colour is a bit off due to the flash light but for the surface it's probably better to see.

The colour is also off in the other pictures due to the neon-lighting in the back of the shop where there was no daylight available.

Thanks for the info CP. I have my quota of 50ml-60ml pots already, but it's a nice set.

I found another picture i took of one of the pots from said set standing on another large pot.
Nice for comparison.

For the briefest of moments, I was thinking, "What second pot...??"
Sort of reminds me of a recent article out there... some artists created a giant replica of a coin (I think one of the Scandinavian countries...) that was the size of a large dinner plate. Then they'd place it next to every day objects (a car, a phone booth, a shopping cart) and take a picture... it made the other object look "miniature" even though it wasn't. Awesome.
