Clear base and cut, polished and bevelled rim. Base is neat and just reflects the mould. Measures 13xm tall by 9cm wide.
I guess it's a long shot on finding out who enamelled it to be honest, but it is beautifully painted. There looks like there was a sig but it is now so worn I can't make much out at all.
Any thoughts much appreciated - I've trawled hundreds of pictures and all the makers I could think of - maybe it isn't French?
thanks so much :sun:

This is where there appeared to have been a signature - not a great shot but the enamel used in the sig is different to any other colour enamel used on the vase,

Possibly - nay probably - your vase originated in the workshop of Pierre Jost which existed from 1918 to 1936 in Dolhain, Belgium. The signature would have read P.Jost - not that I managed to spot one in your picture.

:kissy: Thank you Ivo!! I'm off to try and investigate a little further - a new name for me.
the sig, I think, was where there are what looks like old drips of coffee on the vase ;D near the bottom of the vase in the sig pic I posted on it's own. It could of course just be old drips of coffee though, but I do think it is the remains of a sig.
