Both the links were the same but I found the other one, were they made using a similar process?

I must admit I was going to ask Frank how he arrived at his answer - to me, and must say I am a novice at this, so I do not feel in a position to disagree with Frank, I thought it was earlier.
The glass is so similar to my FA uranium vase and nothing like (the glass) of my post war pieces; there are loads of base scratches, I just "feel" it is older.
Anyway, here are some more base pictures: Please feel free to discuss this amongst yourselves  ;D

The missing link  :) for the veined piece
http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/lot/a-vi-te-299-vase-4149194-details.aspx?from=salesummary&intObjectID=4149194&sid=b507041a-d2fb-4cc6-96f8-917264b9a404
Image below also shows veining type decoration.

I have no knowledge how the veining is achieved and some basic knowledge how to achieve the cloisonne effect.
Having seen the base photos personally I am certain it is pre 1940.
