Title: Can anyone tell me information about these Antique Vases?
Post by: swtgc on July 04, 2009, 02:54:13 PM

I have some vases that have been in the family for about 60 or so years. I don't know whether they are depression glass, or carnival glass or what but I'd like to know what they are and their possible value. I don't know how to post pictures to this post but I have enclosed the link to my flickr photo page which shows 7 pictures of 2 different vases. I appreciate any feedback or knowledge you all might have about the history or value of these vases. Thanks so much. Here's the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/oilag31/sets/72157620819962619/

swtgc, did you read the 2nd STICKY post at the top of the page?

Anyway, is there a "mark" of any kind in the bottom or on the bottom of Vase #1?

It looks to me like it might be a piece of "newer" Carnival, but sometimes photos are deceiving because of the "flash".

The vase in the first few pictures looks like a Fenton piece to me, I would say about $35.

It looks similar to Fenton’s “April Showers” vase which range in size from 5” to 15” tall, but the flare of the base and the scalloped top is different.
