Re: vase

Vase is a fish bowl and was probably made, but don't quote me, in the 1980's or 90's. They sold them in any number of retail and garden shops. I've seen some that are larger and some smaller than yours. Some were hand painted but most I've seen were applicque. There are older ones that do not have the Not for food stamp. The lead in the glaze and paint I believe is the reason. Import ware from china most likely.
