    I think I can be reasonably safe in assuming these are of interwar vintage. Whether they were all made by the same facility is a little more questionable. All three have acid-stamped marks. Vases in pictures 2 and 3 have the same circular "Made in Czechoslovakia" mark but the vase in picture 4 has a rectangular outlined "Czecho-Slovakia". The tallest vase has a raw pontil scar, the other two have ground pontil marks. Other than that, there is not much difference in the style, workmanship, or decor. All have white opaline interiors and transparent aqua cased exteriors accented with vivid fuchsia-to-scarlet ruffled throats (most likely sprayed with a stain and reheated in a "restrike" process).

    The tallest vase stands just shy of 9 inches (22.5 cm) with a spread of 6 1/4 inches (15.8 cm) at the top. The ball vase is 6 inches (15.2 cm) tall with a 5 inch (12.7 cm) diameter body and 4 1/4 inch (10.7 cm) diameter throat. Final vase is also 6 inches (15.2 cm) tall with a 5 1/4 inch (13.3 cm) spread on top.
