Beautiful dark blue body with lighter silver-blue vines.
Not signed .....85% of Durand vases are not. In this case it was helpful as the dealer I bought it from really didn't know what it was. He should have bought the DURAND book as I did.
Interestingly last year while in Florida we went to a very high end shop on Captiva Island and there was the same vase with a price 6 times
what I paid for mine. The shop owner said "Oh that is a rare Durand vase and even thought it isn't signed it's 100% authentic".

Beautiful piece. What is the most informative Durand book out there? Would it be possible to see a pic of the base?
