<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 284971, member: 51"]Was at the thrift and looking for a vase for my mom and this seemed like a nice one. Lifted it up... heavy! Decided I better check the base for a signature, and thank goodness for progressive lenses, noticed a faint tiny circular makers mark that reads: St. Louis France Cristal. Vase is 8" tall, weighs 5.5 lbs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Have to say, the vase doesn't feel terribly old. There is a vase with a similar St Louis Cristal signature (different pattern) for a quite high asking price on Ebay (over 1K!). Can't imagine this would be worth anything close to that, but decided I should get thoughts here in case anyone is familiar with St Louis glass. Guess I'm wondering if this might be a resale item rather than a vase for my mom. Thanks for taking a look. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]91549[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91550[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91551[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91552[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91553[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
