Hi I just saw Scruples post on the Blue Wedgwood Vase.....I am wondering if this is the same?
It has cherubs playing hearts on it also. Would this also have been 1886?
Is this the same as your SCRUPLES?

Ilike the GREEN Wedgwood best, i grew up around the blue, moms from England.
I love the green ! Very nice . What did you find out was date on yours flowerrose ?
Hi everyone! Thanks for all your comments and links assistance. Very interesting to read and still figuring out my date for this one. I am hoping scruples can help! I am advidly reading all your links. THANKS!
Your vase is beautiful, if you have a picture of the bottom of the vase, I'll be more than happy to help you date it. There are date codes stamped into some Wedgwood, along with how the item is stamped. Your vase color, Green is throughout the jasperware. If you look at my vase, you'll see a small white rim at the top. Wedgwood tried to save some money by only dipping the vase into the color. If you break the vase, you'll only see the color on the outside of the vase, inside is white.
Hi, flowerrose! Came 'round to see if VolDeNuit was able to ID your bottle, but it's missing again. Hope your day was marvelous. miKKo
Hi Scruples - thank you very much for the information - am just looking through my photos to see if I photographed the base. Very interesting to hear about the dipping colour process! Hopefully I have photo of base.
hi miKKo - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr they always take it down!!!!!!
