    It's a lovely piece with ruffle detail and odd veins/vines going up the sides. The 3 legs look like branches. It's 6 inches tall.

    TIA! IMG_5578_40.jpg

    I can't help you, but showing the bottom of any piece will help those who can. Often clues are written there.

    It's moulded. I suspect it's French. 1920s ish.

    So that's a mould line, not a crack on the base. I was wondering.

    It is, it's in exactly the right place, like a mirror image almost?

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    You might also consider using "ruffled" as a keyword in your searches. It that a butterfly on the side?

    I could be wrong - and frequently am - so take this with a grain of salt. I think the early ones were made with no glass between the legs and the vase except where they were connected.

    Thank you! And no, there's just vines going up the sides.

    The style is a bit of a mix. Feet - rocket - are Art Deco but the ruffle is very Victorian.

    How did they get out of the mould?

    My first thought was victorian as well.

    WOW! Those are amazing. The first link is the exact piece I have. Thank you so much! Looking into it more, my vase could be a reproduction by L. G. Wright Glass Company.

    Wright did not make glass; they often acquired old molds and contracted with companies like Fenton to make their glass. This does not look like a Wright/Fenton reproduction to me. As I mentioned, it's possibly a Diamond piece but there's likely no way to know for sure.
