Have some smaller vases like this,someone suggested Moser and then someone said not,8.5 ins' broken pontil and gilding worn from handle,Keith.

Most likely Bohemian but definitely not Moser; the quality just is not there for these vases

Thanks Christine,after spending a fair amount of time researching Moser I have to agree but can't resist buying them whenever I see one,Keith.

No idea of specifc maker, but to keep the vase company, I have a pair very likely from the same source although different shape body. See here.

My pair are matched in that the enamelled and (worn) main gilded decoration is on one side only with the handles set so that they are "left & right". But note that one vase (25 cm / 9 7/8 inch) is slightly taller than the other (23,5 cm / 9 1/4 inch). Probably indicates that lots were made in readiness for pairing up at the decorators' benches. Mine were bought in an English antiques fair and although I have since seen several others of the type, I have not seen a pair like mine. But I think there must be loads of them around somewhere.

Very similar,you can see the gilding on the handles of yours and the decor' on the body matches,have a small pair of vases and a couple of odd ones around somewhere,nice to see other pieces,ta,Keith.
