My pretty blue vase I have had it for ages and don't know anything about it, any help would be great. I have put it in the 'Victorian' category but it might not be that old or maybe older!?
The number 25 is enamelled on the base, which I think might mean it was part of a set.
Many thanks for looking!......:-)

You are a fine gardener! Hydrangeas are one of my very favorite flowers - as a matter of fact, I just managed to kill a nice, new plant....Regards, miKKo

Looks like Blue Opaline Glass, number on bottom and finished bottom would make me lean towards Bohemian. Beautiful piece, jmho.
I would agree that it is Victorian. The number 25 could relate to a matching lid and instead of a vase, it could have been a covered compote. It was meant as a mantle piece so there probably was a pair at one time. Certainly of European origin...Bohemian, French etc... RER (LOUMANAL)
NativeJewelerylovers and LOUMANAL many thanks for all your information, I do love it too! it is such a pretty thing!
Also Lilliflunew ~ BELLIN68 ~ nldionne and freiheit.. for the love
