<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Brian Warshaw, post: 9859809, member: 16674&quot;]I appreciate that I am probably in the wrong forum; but I couldn&#039;t find one&nbsp; more appropriate.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think it is rather nice, although it isn&#039;t varnished, so I doubt that it is waterproof.&nbsp; There is a pivot point in the centre of the base, and the vase rocks all round. This might be the result of a deposit rather than a function of the lathe work.</p><p><br /></p><p>Height:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 24 cm</p><p>Largest diameter:&nbsp; &nbsp; 18 cm</p><p>Weight:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 740 g&nbsp;&nbsp; Surprisingly light, I thought.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any ideas on age? Modern or ancient?&nbsp; Art Nouveau or of the style?&nbsp; What is the wood?&nbsp; There may be a signature on the edge of the base; but I cannot make it out.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]494238[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]494239[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]494240[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]494241[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom of vase</p><p>[ATTACH=full]494236[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Centre of bottom with deposit?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]494243[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Possible name of carver (North-west)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]494244[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]494234[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]494235[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]494237[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
