I am looking for help identifying some lamps. The wiring has been updated, so I can't tell anything from that. I am looking to donate these to a house renovation project but have to make sure they are of the correct time. Does anyone have a clue as to what time frame these look?? thank you so very much in advance for your help!

Hi Tiller
Time frame for these vases if they are not marked on the base would be around 1880 to 1891. After 1891, the country or origin was required to be marked with the product under the Mckinley Tarrif. The vase include a Watteauesque picture which has been transfer printed with what could be described as an art nouveau / rococco raised relief border. By style, probably austrian as they love the pink lustre glaze on the bases.
