<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 10478700, member: 308"]I can't see the details very well but it looks to me like it's grey cut (cut but not fully polished). As AI states it: "Grey cut glass refers to glass that has been decorated with incised designs, but the cuts are left unpolished or gray rather than being polished to a bright shine. This results in a frosted or grayish effect on the surface of the glass." Grey cut saves expense since it requires a lot less work. Often these vases are contemporary giftware and made in Continental Europe somewhere. Difficult to say more with a mark or a label. Lovely vase nonetheless.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
