Hi ,
I recently purchased this little vase and am really interested to find out more about it and have had no luck to date, it has no markings other than the numbers 4130 etched on the side and 4130 1/2 hand painted on the base .... there is a fait blue circle off to one side that seems blurred .

Thanks
