<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Iconodule, post: 10287744, member: 91417&quot;]Can you help me identify a modern vase left by my parents?&nbsp; It is cased glass &amp; looks mid-century modern to me, but I assume MCM style can be repeated in later glass.&nbsp; The inside is a translucent white that can look opaque when photographing. The bottom has concentric circles around a central small circle. Is that the pontil mark?&nbsp; 6.75 inches H, 4.75 inches W.</p><p><br /></p><p>No surviving labels, &amp; I see no signature/maker&#039;s mark. I found several similar pieces on ebay (different proportions), but I have doubts about the seller&#039;s descriptions.&nbsp; One evokes Swedish/Danish influence &amp; Carlo Moretti (Murano/Italy) in the same sentence, &amp; the other calls it amberina (which it clearly is not).&nbsp; Prices vary widely too. How can I learn the artist or manufacturer, national or regional origin, date, value, etc.? </p><p><br /></p><p>(I know this is not an antique, but probably vintage, so I hoped someone would know--or point me in the right direction.

My father had a cut glass collection--beautiful, but I am ignorant. Because of maker&#039;s marks I have been able to ID much--but not all--of my mother&#039;s china collection myself.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
