Are there any Markings on the bottom of the Vase?  If not this could be a task to actually get the age.  Vases are changed very little of the centuries, It has a victorian style motif on it maybe, Trying to remember the pic, Have to go back and look.  I just wanted to know if it has any markings to give us a starting point.

thats the thing it has absolutely no markings , so i cannot trace the age of it.. but i can tell its semi old due to the fading , and the looks of it are pretty cool.

I think the "fading" may be an applied look to make it appear older than it actually is.  If you like it and the price was right, then you will enjoy looking at it sitting on a shelf or holding some flowers.  Buy things you like and if the value goes up, so much the better.  If the value stays flat or goes down, at least you had enjoyment from it.
