are these hyacinth vases?
« on: February 22, 2011, 06:48:33 AM »
Someone asked me if these were hyacinth vases: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/mary-gregory-cranberry-glass-vases-/260739611486?pt=UK_Art_Glass&hash=item3cb54abb5e

I don't actually know. I've seen this vase shape many times. I think they could work as bulb vases but were they actually made as such?

thanks
Julie
