These vases were my grandmothers and I know nothing about them. The detail on them is amazing. The grapes look like they were added to the front and there is gold on the rim at the top. There is no name or anything on them. I am sure there is no value to them, but that doesn't matter. Has anyone ever seen these?

Hello , these vases look very much like old Hull (tokay pattern ) . Very pretty and maybe worth more than you think .
I sure like'em .
I looked over some vases online and while Hull tokay pattern is similar, I still cannot find anything like these and it has driven me crazy for years. I seriously do not care if these vases are from the 5 and dime at woolworths, it just bothers me I can't find anything like them. I do, however appreciate your post because any help is appreciated!
I know that the later Tokay pattern was different , grapes not as detailed but Hull is my best guess. Hope somone know for sure ...Good luck !!
