Hi strazzlady ... Your sundial/birdbath 'Tempus Fugit' (time flies) appears , to me , to be a pretty current item . If you 'Bing' or Google for images of 'tempus fugit sundial' , you'll find the same pattern (in aluminum) going for around $60.00 , retail . -regularfella2

Your vase hallmark , if authentic , is one that was used c.1875-1890 by Franz Alton Mehlem (Germany) . Nice vase , strazzlady . -regularfella2

You might want to confirm that the crystal is cut glass and not pressed glass, this pattern was made in both styles. Cut glass has sharp edges rather than rounded ones and is typically much heavier (they need more glass as they are cutting into it!). When gently tapped with a finger nail it rings at a lower tone due to the heavier glass too. Cut glass prices are much higher than pressed glass. But as this is a common pattern, you probably aren't seeing going to see a great value for it compared to others. 250chief
