Sure, no problem. I guess to say that the bottom is "smudged" was really an understatement on my part. I don't really know how to describe the bottom of the vase. The center is smooth like the rest of the vase, but the rest of the bottom is scratchy, almost like it was sandpapered. Also, the basket/flower pattern is repeated on the opposite side of the vase, as well. My parents don't remember where they got the vase from, but they have been together almost 25 years and we've lived all over the US, so it could be from just about anywhere.
Sorry I can't provide more info. I have been searching for the past 2 months to no avail.
