Although the vase looks like it dates from the first quarter of the 20th century, I believe it is actually from the 1960s. Here&#8217;s what I do know&#8230;this frosted glass trumpet-form vase with gilt &amp; high enamel floral decoration in yellow, pink, blue, green, white, and 24k gold was made in Bohemian, Czech, possibly by The Egermann Company. It stands 10 inches high, with 6 inch diameter opening. It was given to me by John Koch, proprietor of his eponymous New York City shop, John Koch Antiques. John loves a good make-do and has been generous in supplying me with them over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the real reason you are reading about this vase it due to its replacement base, which looks like a brass plunger cup. It seems like something repurposed, rather than made specifically as a replacement. I will continue to dig deep and try to find out what this brass whatchamacallit really is. And if anyone knows, please share your information with me and your fellow readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0981.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15454\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0981.jpeg 600w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0981-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0981-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0984.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15456\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0984.jpeg 600w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0984-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0984-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0983.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15455\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0983.jpeg 600w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0983-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0983-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0987.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15457\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0987.jpeg 600w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0987-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0987-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0988.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15458\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0988.jpeg 600w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0988-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0988-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0991.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15459\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0991.jpeg 600w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0991-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/blog.andrewbaseman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_0991-300x300.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This one is a bit of a mystery.
