I have wanted one of these vases for ages. I had one that I sold years ago before I collected Bohemian glass .
It is called Leaf pattern one can see the influence of Japanese art in it's design . Only a little vase at 3"high and 3 1/2 "diameter but full of charm.
The top is finned with an english hallmarked sterling silver top dated to 1904/5 London.

just did a search on Google for Japanese patterns so many lovely ones!
very nice examples:)
I love how this really brings the garden in.
I really do see the Japanese influence even without The link...but I have traveled to Asia very very often. I love and hate Western interpretations...this time love.
Hope you are doing well Oz.
I just had this vase in hand before checking my email , and could feel and see the Japonica in this piece. The design would lend itself to textiles .
