Long Description
This urn or vase has been passed down through my family and I would like to know exactly how old it is, I was told it was well over 100 yrs old and it certainly appears to be by the amount of crazing present. By looking at the top it appears that there was once a lid which obviousely do not have.
It has what looks like lions for handles, raised enamel throughout the entire pictured scene and a scolloped bottom rim.
No repairs, cracks or missing paint, just few small chips on the handle.
I would also like to know its value.
Thanks, Leo
