This very pretty little vase has LILY embossed on the base and a printed gold numeric mark. What make is it and how old please? (That strange mark on the rose is reflection) [img]Lily ? Vase 20080116[/img]

I think it might be Dan, but how do I tell for certain?

identical blooms on the flowers would suggest transfers whereas imperfections and brush strokes would suggest hand decoration

In that case I'd say yes it's hand painted.

It has been decorated by hand, the vase itself looks to me like something I would deem "cheaply molded".

Age wise I'd guess 50's.

It's also got a nice little moulded detail around the neck rim, but as it's black it's difficult to photograph.

The gold mark on the bottom would be the paintresses mark and it looks as if it is from a mold so not that expensive when originally bought.

The black background suggests to me post 1st World War - late 1910s/early 1920s.

Aw, it's a pretty little thing! The date suggested does match the little detail around the neck - it looks quite Art Nouveau in style. Thanks all. Happy
