Title: Opalescent Blue Flower Vase
Post by: svazzo on May 03, 2011, 08:53:02 PM

Hello everyone,
Just recently came across this vase, and though it is nothing like what I collect, I decided to buy it.
It has 3 different embossed flowers all around, and mounts that was told by the seller were Ormulu mounts.
The piece also has a label underneath, but have no idea who it could be by.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I think a couple of additional pictures of the flowers if different may be helpful. Ar first glance It resembles Consolidated's Martele line in their 2683 Jonquil pattern & Martele pieces can be found with Ormulu mounts.

Hello Ken,
Thank you very much for that information.
Here are 2 more photos of the rest of the vase.
The mounting itself divides it into 3 panels.

I think its the earlier Consolidated with that blue wash & not the later Phoenix version so 1929 to 1932 then Phoenix Consolidated again from 1936 to around 1956.
