Topic: possibly Czechoslovakian with enameled floral decoration.

[Paul S.]

Words like 'Mary Gregory' (white enameled painting on cranberry) and Borske Sklo (large olives perhaps) came to mind, but this isn't my area so they are only educated guesses, but wouldn't be surprised if this didn't originate from Czechoslovakia.
All thoughts welcome and if anyone would like to take punt on a date that would be interesting too.

There is a very small amount of clear casing and some wear, but since this would likely be a decorative item then it may have been in Granny's cabinet for a while.    Something like 10 inches (about 25 cms.) tall.      thanks for looking.

Not my area either..and I’m not sure I’ve got an area to TBH😀..happy to take a run and jump thought Paul ! Late Victorian and flat rims always makes me sway towards continental glass ?

Hi thanks for the input   -  I should of course have said 'Mary Gregory' type vases, and it's true that most of that 'type' is found on glass that doesn't have this 'large olives' dip-moulded appearance her 'children' are seen usually on smooth glass.        I also probably typed the name a bit too quickly and should have thought more about possible confusion  -  it was just that seeing this rather thick white enamel, her name jumped to mind.         Still if nothing else it keeps the name of Boston & Sandwich Glass Co. alive.            I think the moulding on this one is the result of a dip-moulded pattern, but correct me if I'm wrong.

The Borske Sklo olives pattern does look slightly different to the surface pattern here but, again, I was taking a quick punt and thought there looked to be a similarity so thought the mention of Borske might help all those hordes of researchers who were beavering away and looking for proof of an attribution for me.            The Borske Sklo 'olives' we see commonly was a second half C20 creation, so if this vase does have a connection to the 'olives' design then have to say it won't be Victorian.

But would agree with you about 'Continental'
