Antique Questions Forum / Vase

« on: June 10, 2004, 12:07:35 pm »

I have an old bud vase.  The friend who gave it to me said it was around 100 yrs old.

It's aproximately 12" tall; about 1 1/2"across the top; it has gold around the rim and about 1/2" down and also on the base.  It has a mark that is a U with filled in circles on the two ends of the U and has a circle around the U.
I would like to know if anyone is familiar with that particular mark and if they can tell me anything about the vase and maker.

I have a small vase (planter) that is marked on the bottom:
 
c/3 Cardel Italy
 
It is 4 1/2" High  5 3/8" Across the top
 
A white, somewhat pitted (intentionally) background with turquoise, yellow, pink, blue and green flowers.
 
I would like to know anything about it, if it has any monetary value, etc.
