    I know our dear Anne Landers will recognise the rounded vase here as I have posted one the same before.
    The angled vase is a new Taiwanese vase to me but just as nice and in the same pink glass.

    Working in a very pre war style this glassware was made in Taiwan in the 1960s when their glass industry was relatively young.

    They have both been nicely moulded and post moulding have been acid etched.
    The rounded vase has had acid resist applied to the fan shapes so they remain glossy - a very pretty result. This vase has a familiar bull's head mark although I haven't identified which factory used that mark (I recall I found out once but can't find my notes so I might as well give it up).

    The angled bottle has only been etched from the neck through the central panel, except for the dear little snowdrop motif. No mark on this vase although it may be from the same maker.

    This glass was very cheap in the 60s - at that stage Taiwanese made goods were considered even lesser than Japanese.
    Looking at them objectively however, it's good glass, prettily made.

      Lovely vases, great education. I think that your fans may be stylised flowers, though I can't bring the name of the flower to mind.
