<p>[QUOTE="Dhone, post: 251200, member: 4977"]Pardon the confusion. I am not being clear with my descriptions. I regretfully have the tendency to call everything vaseline glass when it shouldn't be. It is opalescent glass. The metal isn't coated in plastic. I meant coated as in painted black. I have collected antiques for 25 years and there is no doubt at all that it is not from 1970. The bottom flower of the vase is attached by a now fused rusted square nut. The flowers I did not say were gold. It was a guess, just don't know of a metal that would not tarnish completely after so long. Maybe they sealed the metal part too? Thank you for the response, and again I apologize for any confusion![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
