ART DECO (VASE OR CELERY)?
« on: August 17, 2010, 01:37:02 PM »
Hi i'm still learning and understand that some of these vases were classed as celery vase's due to a tax issue,could this be Bohemian or French as the round raised mark at the base of the glass says "foreign",does anyone know when that wording would have been used for imports.it stands at 18cm high 8cm across the top...thank you for looking, Lynn
