This vase stands just a little over 10 1/2".
The entire vase was acid etched and then the higher relief areas of the vines and leaves were enameled. The mill scene is unusual for Mont Joye.
The overall texture is called chipped ice. The vase has a polished base and pontil as well as the Mont Joye mark.

Magnificent vase!! I have not seen a vase like this. Very fine painting and decoration.
Thanks mikko-- I appreciate your comments. The "mill scene" or anthing scenic for that matter is not typical Mont Joye.

Yes, I have varied interests!
Most of it comes from auction attendance years ago (mainly looking for militaria) and seeing things that interested me.
I'd follow up with research to get an idea on values and THEN buy bargains as they came up in auctions.
I got hit hard with the Victorian Art Glass, RS Prussia, Victorian Silverplate and antique photography BUGS!
I am lucky enough to do what I love and deal in militaria and antique photographs.
