Hi Alison, happy new year and welcome to the board!

A photo of the base would be helpful perhaps.

It's very quiet here since some days, probably due to the festive season, so please be patient with us

Hi Pamela, happy new year to you too, glad i found this place, i have learnt a lot just reading through some of the posts alone. Are you the lady who has the Pressglass site? i have used your site as reference for pieces of glassware for many years now, how nice that you help people out on here. here is a photograph of the base of the vase, its nothing very exciting, but i hope it helps
best regards
Alison

Hi Alison
What a wonderful vase! I have seen this before at a fair in pink on a lovely black glass plinth(with the scrolls)
A wild guess could it be possibly be S.Reich? I only say that because the water foliage on the vase is similar in design to a marine themed bowl I used to have that was made by S.Reich.

Gorgeous piece anyway!

Nige you are an absoute legend! Is there a beautiful piece of pressed glass on the planet you have not owned?
Lol!
You would be very proud of me.. I won a perfect Schmetterling on eBay listed as 'pink pressed glass vase' I put on a max bid of $150 and was within a whisker of getting it for $26 but ended up a second later winning it for $58!!! I am now in teneriffe but can't wait to get back to see it!!

You and Angela have set me a new challenge with the water nymph as it's beautiful!!!

have a great new year!!!

you are all making me feel quite proud of my vase, thank you all for the lovely comments, do you need anymore photographic details of it?

[Antoinette]

Hi Angela
yes please!!!
I have spent 2 hours this morning searching many websites but can not find anything as beautiful or stunning. Despite my multiple national search for your beautiful Sirenis I can not find the maker at all to confirm but agree it's highly likely a Reich!
Stunning!

Hi Anglea and Antoinette
Ive emailed a contact of mine to see if it is Reich.Ive also asked if they have one for sale as it was on their stall when I last saw the same vase.I would love to buy it! Awaiting their reply.
