Friday Show and Tell – Tree Vase


Visit Cindy at My Romantic Home for links to other Show and Tell participants.

I have just one item to share today, a find at a local consignment shop. It is a white porcelain vase with an irrediscent glaze. Gilding outlines the top opening of the vase and various knarled bumps along the tree trunk. It is marked on the bottom, "Fleetwood China/ 22 kt. gold."
The vase stands 8 1/4 inches tall.

A gilt squirrel is perched on a branch:
It reminds me of the squirrels I see in my yard.



Thank you for stopping by. Enjoy your weekend!

The Muse and Susan,
I've been using it as a decorative object and once spring and summer flowers are here I will also use it as a vase for a single flower.
Thanks for asking,
Carrie
