I bought this nice quality vase not long ago, just because of its quality.
I've never seen anything similar, browsed for a few hours Google images with appropriate keywords but didn't find anything close.

There's no mark/stamp/signature.

It's about 30 cms/12 inches tall.

Thought about a possible German or Scandinavian origin, but that's just a vague intuition, could be 100% wrong.

Wondering if it rings any bell, thanks a lot

I got a suggestion from elsewhere, in case it helps, that it could be Moser/Bohemia. That would fit my intuition but I lack the expertise to be sure.

Gorgeous piece.  I'm trying to firmly id a vase of mine that I believe is the same shape - just different casing and design.
Would it be possible for you to give the exact dimensions of this please - i.e. height exactly, width of base and width of rim.

If you have time I'd be very grateful :)
Many thanks

Hi again Flying Free,

Sorry I couldn't reply sooner.

Here are the precise measures (in mm, easier for me, easy to convert to your units).
I took pics as well to show how I took the measures.

Height: 303 mm

Diameter of the mouth/opening (outer measure) : 86 mm

Diameter of the base (outer measure) : 105 mm

Hope that helps!

Cheers,

Antoine
