Title: pretty colours on 2 vases, but where in the world might they be from?
Post by: Hel on December 10, 2011, 12:55:04 PM

Hello helpers.. (Santas helpers?)

Do you know which part of the world these might be from?

The green one is 24 cm high, the lilac one 22 cm high.

many many thanks

But then I have the answer in itself

Oh no, Helga, you shouldn't think that way!  You posted these yesterday... just because you haven't yet had a reply, it most certainly doesn't mean you've got junk.  Please give board members time.  :kissy:

P.S. Since the vases are different, you should post each in a separate thread, and provide a very good shot of the base.

Hello Helga,  Anik is right,  some people only pop in to the board on a weekly basis, and a lot of people go away for the weekend or are bust Christmas shopping......But I think it might be best to list them separately, otherwise if they are from different countries,  which category will they finally end up in?

haha yes, I see.

I will make another post for the lilac one, I have kind of decided that the green one is boring with its weird unpolished foot  :ac1:


Thanks

Helga

Hi Helga

These are swung vases, which were popular in the US. Try searching on 'swung vases', and L.E. Smith, Fenton, Pilgrim, Viking, Tiffin and fostoria. That's all I can tell you, but it might give you somewhere to start.
