Hello folks, I recently purchased this decorative vase locally here in Argyll, Scotland. It has a beautiful heavy enamel type glaze with what appears to me to have an art nouveau leading into art deco influence. It measures approximately 12" and is in undamaged condition. I have done some research without success in identifying it. When I purchased it I thought it may be Longwy of France however the marks to underside do not indicate this. I would be delighted if someone with more experience in ceramics could advise me where they believe this vase to derive. Many thanks in advance, Alex
