pair of CHASE CO. art deco chrome bud vases, 1942

WHAT FUN today, when doing a little pre-posting research, to discover that this fun little pair of bud vases (I've always guessed, anyway?) were not only exactly that -- but that they also had some genuine 'authenticity' to 'em too?!! My HUGE THANKS to SEAN68, for his greatly informative posting of another one a few years ago!!

[recapping the pertinent info: designed by Gerth and Gerth, made by Chase Brass & Copper Co. and sold in 1942, 9" tall with 3-1/2" base]

I honestly don't remember where I came across the pair probably >10yrs ago, just that I first (and still) love their shape/style. (plus they were no doubt cheap...the careful viewer will note a likely big clue to that in one of the pics... <lol>)
