Beautiful colorful vases, no idea original. ID = Chinese
« on: October 16, 2015, 04:03:29 PM »
I just scoutet a few trift shops and i totally fell for these vases. They might be junk, but in that case beautiful junk. My hope was that you could identify the type? There might be some mark under some of them But it is difficult for me as a total newb wrt decorative art.

[Mod: Thanks Mjaubeib for starting a new thread for the Right-hand Vase. That item can now be viewed in the Murano & Italy forum - click here ]

I think "Snowflake" is actually the brand/maker's name for the Chinese ones?

Welcome to the board! :)

Thank you all! They are very beautiful in colorful But a bit cheap in the look. The one on the right are most beautiful.  :) I have always loved glass vases, finally i have a home to display them in.
