I picked this up at a garage sale last week and it instantly became my wife's favorite. It's unmarked on the bottom, about 10" tall with crazing all over. Any idea's who made it?
Thanks!

wow! this looks really nice!
It looks like a Lalique vase called "Perruches". Don't get me wrong I think it is wonderful.
Consolidated Glass made a similar vase that is unmarked....could be by them. RER(BOB)
Pics of the bottom?
Since it's pottery, not sure that Consolidated would have made it. I put a couple more pics. The bottom has what looks like a few marks, but I put a black light and it didn't show much more detail.
Sorry about that! It is pottery so forget Consolidated Glass, BUT the pattern/style is very much like the Consolidated vases. BOB
the chocolate red color of the clay is unusual. i wonder which potters used it? how big is it? it looks hand worked - ? maybe it was pressed into a mold? the bottom could have been hand-finished even if it was poured into a mold.
Pretty sure it is a molded piece. Sure looks like the Consolidated Glass vase that LOUMANAL posted.
I once owned an example of this vase and, like you, was terribly curious about its origins. I can tell you that the Stangl pottery made single color versions of this vase as lamp bases and, as the previous commentor stated, Consolidated Glass made a glass version. But where is this vase from? All I can add is that I asked David Rago, and he sniffed at it as though it was beneath him. I'm wondering if it might be made in China.
I found one that sold at a Humber & Nolan auction a couple years ago. They called it a Muncie vase. Funny, I showed David Rago a picture of it at the LA Pottery show last month and he told me China too. Good guy, he told me there is a lot of Chinese stuff floating around.
