Lovely Little Pale Blue Bud Vase fine basket and the lower portion is

and the lower portion is what has been framed

open on the bottom

a large bird

and at once subtle and attention getting

The handle at the middle of the lid probably once had a tassel attached

Lovely Little Pale Blue Bud Vase fine basket and the lower portion isThis is one of my very favorite bud vases ever, and I've collected and sold a lot of bud vases! Signed with what looks like "Jani" and stamped "Brandon Stoneware" a pottery studio in Brandon, Mississippi it has a wonderful, delicate form and is glazed the palest, most ethereal shade of blue. Really, this little vase emits an aura like radiance. Every sort of bud looks lovely in it, and it looks lovely most anywhere! 3 5 8" tall x 3 1 4" at widest
