blue vase.... help?

[mortschool1]

I bought this vase from an estate sale, and I have no markings. I know it is old. It is in perfect condition, and the pictures are included. It is 14", dark blue, with a star and lattice pattern with another star pattern on the bottom.

Welcome to the forum! What you have is a vintage Bohemia (Czech Republic) hand-cut cobalt blue lead crystal (probably 24%) vase. Here's a similar one:

Very neat find

Breezie, Do you think that his vase is worth anywhere near what the person on ebay is asking?

Mortschool, Welcome to Treasure Net! What did you pay for that, if you don't mind my asking? Its very pretty. (I am a sucker for blue glass.)

Hey Deb, Condition is major factor in determining value; no chips, cracks, hair lines, flea bites, etc. The best way to determine the value is to look at 'closed' auctions for the actual price paid over a period of time, and take the average price.

I like cobalt blue too! Breezie

Not at all

I paid $5 for it at an estate sale. If it turned out to be worthless, I was just going to keep it. I picked it out because it was heavy, beautiful, and in stellar shape. I have seen on other sites like Etsy the same one sells for $65. Similar ones sell for up to $228. I have emailed several free appraisers and will visit one this weekends just to make sure. I want to get the exact specs of it.
