I once had a similar vase with an 'Opaline Florence' label.

From the style of the piece I would have guessed 1970s, but I have no firm evidence for this.

no it cannot be fixed; yes the maker is one of the Empoli companies, hence the sticker; and yes we are talking seventies. As for  :cry: don't,  another one will turn up, these are not rare.
