    At one time, I had some plates that had a glassblower label. If I remember Right (questionable) they were Fenton. This doesn't look like Fenton though.

    I wonder if that's just a translation issue. The Etsy listing wasn't originally in English and when I ran it through a Google translator it came out as handle vase.

    original
    Henkelvase mit Goldbemalung 24 Karat St. Prex Suisse VD
    wunderschönes Vitrinenobjekt


    Google translation
    Handle vase with gold painting 24 carat St. Prex Suisse VD
    beautiful showcase object

    I think you nailed the confusion! So, I’m still confused about the value, I’m just reluctant to think I might have actually gotten something decent. (Although it’s not really to my taste)

    This company stopped using incised marks in 1936 and switched to the label. Does anyone think this could be valuable and I should try to find somewhere to get an appraisal.?

    Don't know what it's worth - here's an article about the glassworks - even has some information on the techniques used to make your piece:

    Both crackle vase examples I found in sold items on ebay went for $55.

    I don’t understand why the Etsy ones are $1500 and up.

    It certainly seems to fit St Prex to me - the glass is the right color as described in that document I linked you to. Don't see why anyone would bother putting that label on something that wasn't St. Prex - and I think doubtful St Prex is faked... others would know better than me though.

    Thank you, I think it’s real. I just can’t understand the price difference.
