<p>[QUOTE="Mugzinnys, post: 394580, member: 228"]thanks, Gregsglass for the helpful advice on repairing the vase. The more I look at this vase the more I like it, it's growing on me. Thanks Kentworld I'm not sure of the age of the vase are there other characteristics on the vase that may help me pinpoint the age? I looked at the bottom and it was crazed and sort of yellowish or ivory looking I presume that it probably was white and had yellow over time and that was how I was guessing the age basically. The wear on the gold on the handles and the first gold line above the foot and the rim shows to me that someone probably used this beautiful object it didn't just sit somewhere it was in used. So based on that I was saying to myself maybe it was an older item but I'm not an expert, but that was the reasoning I used to put it in the antique forum instead of the pottery and glass forum.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
