When I did my research using the steps described below, there was no other vase like this. There was another one that was similar enough in style that it might’ve been made by the same person, but this one is way cuter in its colors and shape. The other one was for sale for $180. The estimated value of this vase is $400 by the auction house.

This would be a good gift for a man or a woman. It has a very masculine appearance.

Width: 13 inches

My guarantee is that I will be honest about my items, and share what I know about them with you. Also, I will be fair with my pricing based on research, and I will also share this with you.

There are three steps involved in my research for pricing, and you can do this too.

1. Use an app called Google Lens to take a photo of any item. It will bring up similar items and how much they sell/sold for. This is also helpful in figuring out what to call or how to describe the item.

2. Do a Google search for the name of the item.

3. Do a search for the item by name on Chairish and another similar site.

Since I am being fair with my pricing, I want you to know how to do this. It will only help me by validating my pricing choices, and hopefully it will help you to recognize items that are overpriced.

Feel free to ask me any questions or to make an offer.

I have many more items to post, so please check back sometime.

Thank you!
