Featured What type of flowers are on this vase? And is it worthless tat?

Hi all

I've been trying to figure out what type of flowers are on this vase, and also whether it is potentially worth something, or just tat?

It has 132/1 embossed on the bottom, but no other marks I can see...

Many thanks

 

Daisies! Wonder if it was an FTD type of item?

 

Ooh, Betty!

 

What does FTD mean please?

 

Many thanks for the quick replies Not the greatest picture because the light is awful and I'm having trouble getting the phone camera to focus, but hopefully gives enough of an idea...

Thanks again

 

Another British expression? What does tat mean?

FTD is a company that delivers flowers, saying it looks like an FTD item means maybe it was made for the floral industry. I also agree daisies.

 

An American floral delivery company. The source of all those rows of inexpensive vases that fill thrift shop shelves.

Daisy. Or being botanical, one of the asteraceae family.

 

Tat = https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/tat

And just in case that doesn't translate, it's from an old 1970s sitcom. The main character - Frank Spencer - is an absolute gem!


So, to summarise, the flowers on the vase are daisies and the vase itself is charity/thrift shop FTD tat?

Thanks again for the help

 

I suspect it's from Portugal, that thick white glaze often is.

 

So, "worthless tat" is actually redundant.

 

Soome tat can be valuable.

 

alternately, flower could be black-eyed susan

 

As valuable vases go, it doesn't. It's perfectly good for putting flowers in however, i.e. its original purpose.

 

FTD vases are marked as such, so this isn't FTD. It's really pretty, though. I like simple white vases.

 

A stylized dahlia is also a possibility.
