Featured Unknown Vase Identification

Hi guys,

I have this Vase I'm trying to identify. I did think it was royal Worcester however I have never seen the mark on the base and am struggling to find it anywhere else.

Does anyone know who this maker is and what date?


Many thanks
Matt

Hi Matthew, You need to change your gallery settings from 'private' to 'public'. Your pictures should show up after you do that.

 

Hi, Sorry new to the forum. Is that better?

 

Turning the mark right-side-up might help people ID it. Hope you don't mind I fiddled with your picture.

 

It appears to be a mark that is at least attributed to Robert Hanke, Made in Austria.

Oh, and welcome to the boards

 

Welcome!

 

Thank you guys thats been helpful, anyone have an idea of value?

 

Here is a list of completed auctions on ebay for Hanke vases from highest to lowest

Does anyone think it will sell for that much?

Here's a Forbes list of most expensive gemstones (carat for carat) and sapphire isn't even on the list. (About half of them I've never heard of.)

Isn't it odd that so many gemstones involve aluminum oxides?

 

Isn't that from another thread ??

Now that's odd !!

 

Don't know how that happened. I must have been here with the other thread on my mind. Odd indeed!
