Need ID help- Ruffled Edge Vase- TJ or TK Maxx?

Mod: html code removed from your post as it is disabled on the board. Please use the board's BB code tags instead when adding links.

Have searched all over the internet and cannot find these from China, India, etc. Please help me identify as art glass or repro and any info on where I may research for future references. The bottom has a round ground pontil or polished? pontil but not as shiny as the rest of the vase. Also when you look at it towards the light it has pinkish orange glow like a sunset.

Thanks in advance for any and all help you can give me.  :)

It looks late 19th/early 20th, perhaps Bohemian. Can we have a picture of the base and a picture straight on from the side, and can you upload your pictures to this thread please. Do you have a UV light to shine on it?

Unfortunately, right now I have no way to take more pictures. But, when I see family again that took this picture for me I will have them take more and will get those posted.

Tried to load picture directly to this site, but it kept saying the image was too big. Any help/ideas to get it on here directly? Thanks!

No UV light. Will check on getting one soon, hopefully, if not too expensive.

Loads of techie tips here - along with a ton of other info about the board. :)
You'll need to find the parts that are relevant to your particular system and resizing programmes.

Thank-you so much for persevering with the pics. :)
That's old.
Not TJ or TK Maxx.
Sorry I can't help more than that. ::)

Thanks for everyone's help. I am going to try to get more pics up today. I did not think it was a cheap reproduction, but someone told me (from these pics) it was according to people who knew high end glassware. (Or maybe it was just b/c my piece isn't high end.) I thought maybe they were aware of something I was not. I did wonder, however, if it could be a new piece from a small studio. Anyways, still trying to figure it out exactly, and am going to check out one of those local stores to see exactly what they are talking about.

Thanks again!  ;D
