Green & white horn shaped vase

Profile picture for user minnyme

Description

This is a really different horn shaped vase {I think} that my grandmother gave me, and said that it was her mothers, so I have no idea how old it could be, There are white flowers, and leaves on each side which are made to look as  though they were just laid on there. I have never seen any vase like this before and am curious as to what it actually is. There are some letters written on the bottom. The first row, if I can make it out right says Wellet, but the second row is so worn, it is to hard for me to make out. It is a very interesting piece though.
