    Picked up these two lovely painted milk glass vases listed as Victorian.
    One has lost some gilding around the base and lip while the other
    doesn’t quite “ping” properly due to a small hairline under the
    bulb area I still liked them and won them with a $30 bid.Think they
    will sell well as décor vases.

    What do you think? Victorian or later??

    Wait for the experts, but your pretty vases appear to be opaline glass, Victorian era. The numbers on the bottom suggest continental origin, perhaps French.

    They look like painted 'Bristol glass. so maybe a take-off.

    I would guess mid to late 19th Bohemian.

    I would agree they appear to be opaline glass and of continental origin. The decoration looks quite French.

    Usually called Victorian Bristol glass, after the earlier enameled Bristol glass, but the vast majority were Bohemian, yours are most likely late Victorian...

    I've quite a few small ones packed away, this one, in a very similar shape, is about half the size of yours, was told it was made by Harrach, but never verified that:

    OK. Late Victorian Bristol glass with a French influenced floral design seems to be a reasonable description.
    Thanks folks.
    Stay safe.
