Its hard to say without looking closer but may be an epergne or a porcelain fountain. Can you post more pics. Especially the inside of the bowl and the flute at the top. Also the bottom of the bowl.


I don't think its a light. But I might be wrong. Is there any evidence that its been wired.

No wiring. The one on the top is a small bowl.
Will make pictures tomorrow. Got a camera at the house, but the cord to charge is 5000 miles away....... And the battery is empty.
And thank you for helping.

Is the long metal stem hollow or solid?

Think it's for flowers & fruit on a buffet. Value dependent on maker & vintage.

I agree. After looking at the new pics I think its an epergne.


OP. I think I found your makers mark. I cant see your mark clearly.
Look at image 3.

Thank you very much Cecillia rose. So, it is fake, but a nice looking fake and slowly getting old.
I might put it on E bay, see what happens.

Thank you again.

I was hoping I was wrong. It is a neat piece though. I checked further and it looks like Wong Lee items are selling. Theres a vase that sold on Ebay for $139.99.


If you do list on Ebay you need to figure out how youre going to ship it and get a price on shipping before you list. Oversize items are REALLY expensive to ship. Especially if they travel any distance.

The first thing I would do is see if it comes apart. I have to leave now to take Huz to one of his many DR appts . Will check in later.

Does anyone know what this item is?

It's a bridge trump card indicator. And the top slider buttons are to count the winning hands against what was initially bid.
