Topic: Old Hyacinth vase

[Dave the Glass]

Picked this up yesterday, looks like quite an old one & i was wondering if anyone out there could help with its indentity.
It has a few air bubbles in it, Just under 8 inches tall 3 1.2 across the base just under that the top. Not sure if it glows as i don't have a torch.

Dave brought this over to look at today, it looks fine to me, as a Hyacinth vase,
ribbed, good age wear,  circa 1900. Space for a couple of fingers in the neck,
I said, maybe Patricia will see it here, and  confirm or give more info .

Cheers all,
Andy

Hi Dave,

Came back yesterday, looked at the board just now, scoured for hyacinth vases, and Bingo! 
I have this one myself as well, bought it in England (and so for me it's English for the time being) and nor the dealer nor me could really place it.
Checking it literally from top to bottom it could be anywhere between 1920 till 1940 and that is purely going on a hunch. Not much help, is it?
The cup is rather unusual for a hyacinth vase, almost like a tulip,and no other vase that I know of has this kind of cup. So if it has to be sold, go for that aspect, I did when I bought it.

Good luck, Patricia

Thanks very much for the info Patricia, as Christmas is coming i am tempted to stick a bulb in it
But there again i might stick it on Ebay they can smell a bit strong sometimes.
