These glamorous, ceramic, cutesy figural vases got their start in florist shops during the 1950s and again in the middle 1960s. Today they are wildly popular among collectors, and this is a wonderful pocket guide. The 300 vases, illustrated in color, include dimensions and current values in the captions. Manufacturers include Napco, Royal Copley, Royal Sealy, Shawnee, and many others. AUTHOR: Mary Zavada is an avid collector residing in Texas.
