Title: Mystery to me. Clear. Floral. Heavy. Scandinavian look

11” tall.  Wear on the base.  If it’s nothing special, okay, just want to know who made this, if possible.

Hope the photo isn’t large!  I’m on an iPad and must upload to a host site because I don’t know how to resize on the iPad.

I won't click on photobucket links, they mess my ancient and slow pc up.
I don't know even what an ipod is, so don't ask me about what they can or can't do. ;D

I'm sure its Italian.  Can't think for the moment what, but will check and get back when I can, unless someone can beat me to it. ;)

Several of us (including me) have problems viewing Photobucket images due to their blocking of ad-blockers in browsers or other issues with that site so we cannot see your images. Please would you add them to your topic instead. If you have a problem uploading from an iMac type machine (and many do, it's the fault of Mac systems not this site) feel free to email me copies of your photos (full size is fine) and tell me which topic they are for and I'll resize them and add them into the topic for you. support@glassmessages.com will reach me just fine.

This looks very similar and made me think it might be Italian http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,24409.msg136226.html#msg136226
Does it have any markings on the base?  Might be Fidenza  ???

Thank you all for looking and trying to look!  I will figure out the photo thing before I post again, at least not use photo bucket!  Sounds like I have a nice looking not so special vase ~ thanks!

It is always a good idea to post a photo of the base - taken from the side at around 45 degreses - showing whether the base is flat, polished, dished, etc.  The  reason is that it often eliminates a range of possible makers - rather than positively identifying one of them.

When I’ve figured out how to post photos properly, I will show the base.  Till then, the vase is not hand finished in anyway.  No polishing, no marks. No pontil.

Those prunts are very like Reijmyre prunts with the centre bump sticking out a little further.  Except Reijmyre only has a corona of 6 bumps per prunt - this has 8 per prunt.
