I wish i had luck like this when i go to yard sales ;~)Bauer vases are quite popular. Here's a link for you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bauer_Pottery Here's a link to sales at auction this year: http://www.liveauctioneers.com/search?q=Bauer+vase&fq=&sort=relevance&dtype=gallery&hasimage=true&type=complete&rows=100&addfq=sale_date_year%3A%282010%29

Thank you for such a quick response. I have been on the site that you sent me and on many others and have not found any Bauer vase that even closely resembles mine. I even e-mail the Bauer Pottery Company of Los Angeles and received a response from them stating that they had been looking around to see if they could find anything like my piece and haven't been able to match it to any Bauer Pottery piece that they've seen. Can you recommend other research options I might be able to use for my vase? I really appreciate your help and information. Mary
