Title: Tall White Glass Vase - Brown pattern design
Post by: Otis Orlando on February 07, 2010, 08:20:42 PM

This is a beautiful vase.  Looks more like a lamp base.  looking at the base and directly around the sides of this, indicate that it is cased.  Considering the overall height of the vase, I must say it is light in weight.  The vase measures 36.5cm in height, the base dia. 10.7cm.  Even though the base is relatively flat it shows slightly indented rings that start from the outside of the base to the middle of the base.  I hope the pictures are sufficient in identifying this vase.   I have searched but unable to find one similar or the same with this type of pattern effect.  Any help in locating the originator and age would be most appreciated.  Many thanks!
