Subject:Help me identify this vase
Posted By: Sonja Mon, Feb 23, 2009 IP: 64.183.81.2

I need help identifying this vase. There is no mark on the bottom and I don't know anything about it. Can someone help me of what the characters are and maybe a period on it? I have more pictures if needed. Thanks!

Hi Sonja,

Interesting jar.

I suspect, although it appears to be 19th Century it may well be a modern piece.

A picture of the footrim and base may help to confirm this.

Gary.

My mother had someone look at it years ago for appraisal and they said it was 19th century along with some other things that she can't remember. I will take more pictures and have them up by tomorrow. Thanks!

Most likely circa 1900's. This motif was popular then especially with the ample use of the toffee colored enamel.
