    This vase was given to me about 1980. The paint is a matte red background with shiny raised painted figures. It is about 7 1/2 inches tall, 22 inches around the middle, and 3 3/4 inches across the opening. It is a fairly heavy thick pottery material with no cracks or scratches that I can see. It has been used as a flower vase and I haven't tried to clean the inside. Silly me, the object that you can see inside is a piece of broken eyeglasses. Didn't see it until I looked at the picture GRIN.

      Thank you for looking for me. I just have no idea if this should go in the garage sale or is worth a fortune. GRIN Would love to know.

      That's always the fear, and the hope. :)
