I've never considered this large, Roseville early 'Cornelian' Vase important enough to 'stand alone'.....so, it's in the 'toilet' with a bunch of fancy French silk flowers.....Six years ago, I offered to sell this vase to a 'thrift store shopper' friend....for $200...(before I viewed a far less attractive vase from the same maker, which sold, at auction, for $1815! ). My Thrifter Friend "offered' $150 for the Vase, replying that it wasn't worth any more than that!.....Later, after...I'm sure.....viewing the 'auction results', he offered me $1000 for the Vase. I declined his offer, and the Vase remains in the bathroom....a lovely view from the toilet seat.....Sorta funny...that his was the 'high paddle' for the 'less blushier' Lot #114, that Jan. 23, 2021!
