mattarios2 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Stumbled into some store, awesome people, they import persian hand made vases, they make a few styles colors and designs. They have stickers on them that say handmade in Persia, they wanted big bucks, bought a bunch of stuff and they ended up giving a very fair deal. Shitty photo but it will have to do since my phone is all I have here on vacation: [img]http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll16/mattarios/downsize-1.jpg[/img] I'd estimate it is about 13-14 inches tall, it is massive. Really nice work on it, I snagged an emerald green one. I told them about the forums and to join as a vendor and sell these vases, they are very nice and extremely heavy. Top looks a little crooked but I think it is soemthing in the photo messing with it because I am looking at it now and it isn't crooked, weird, none the less great find on vaca, I'm happy :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehelios Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Sexy, sexy vase. How much did you pay for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 I'm not supposed to say ... it was part of the deal with the vendor I bought it from. I'll tell you I paid less than what bohos go for currently. joy, when I get a stem for it, I will take pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CO_hookah Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 That is one of the coolest vases I've seen in awhile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 Thanks man, what I truly love is everywhere you see straight gold lines, wavy gold lines, or the little dashes,,the vase is hand cut on those spots so in person it looks stunning because you can see the engravings in the glass.

[/quote] Yeah me too, I've always wanted one of these Persian vases, I've seen a few on eBay with similar designs but people ask ridiculous money like 3-700 for them. This vendor was extremely reasonable. It is interesting there is a sticker on the bottom that on the edges of the sticker you can tell it is a real sticker (not just a piece of paper with tape over it) and on the sticker in pen someone wrote "Made in Per" I found that interesting rather than using a sticker that is pre-made they use a sticker and write on it, thought it was different and neat. It is much different styling than my bohos, so it is a great vase to add to the collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1v3th3ad Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 wow, that is absolutely beautiful. I hope they show up here, I would love to have one of those for my collection...if I could get one I would definitely splurge on a stem for it(I've been holding off on buying new stems lately since I'm living at home now rather than college ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yeah if they show up i urge everyone to consider getting one the designs are truly magnificent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
