This vase is 6 1/2 inches tall. It is in the Jap birdimal pattern. This pattern was designed by Frederick Hurton Rhead. The vase is signed on the bottom with a stamped Weller mark and the number 66.

The area in question is about three-eighths of an inch in size and there is a little hole of less than one-eighth of an inch. This is not visible when looking at it normally.

This small kerosene lamp has a base that is made of quilted satin glass. The burner is made of bronze. The base is 4 ½ inches tall and it is 10 ½ inches to the top of the flute. The knob on the burner has a couple of crossed torches and says Paris on a banner. Circa 1900
The base and flute are in excellent shape. The place in the burner where the fuse is raised has some damage to it as can be seen in the pictures. The knob will not move the fuse.
