The vase is an impressive 14 high and is unmarked. This HEAVY piece is such an unusual shape! The piece has no chips, cracks or dings that I can see - but there might be a tiny nip to one of the teeth that I just can't see. At some point the family put some felt dots on the base but as this is quite a heavy piece in it's life prior there is some shelf wear. The house this piece came from is on the historic register and was built in 1939.
