Hello again. I believe this is a late eapg pattern involving 8 flat colonial-like panels and a similar octagon base. Stands 6 1/4 in tall. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again everyone :)
Indiana Glass #125 aka: Old Reliable. Quadruped c1910

Thank you TallCakes :) I'm looking at a June 1917 Butler Bros catalogue and I see an 8 in vase nearly identical listed as a "Priscilla" pattern. I think #125 is a better match but if you have the time check out the Priscilla vase in the 1917 "Summer Sale" catalogue.
not aware of a 'Pricilla' pattern that looks like this...
I think the name "Priscilla" is possibly a title that Butler Bros gave to the ware. It appears to have a more pronounced colonial "arch" at the top where as #125 seems to stay flat all the way to the rim with no arch...more of a basic flat-panel motif than colonial in my opinion.
the distinguishing motif of 125 are the divots where the ribs meet the rim as in this vase.
