I've seen this pattern in a number of different configurations and at least two different base sizes. The vases once sold in the $25 to $40 range, but in the late 1990s a book reported them to be variants of the much more rare and desirable Imperial Colonial Lady--which they are NOT. These were probably made between the 1930s and 1950s. After the misidentification, the prices rose to closer to $100 or so. Spittoon whimsies similar to the one shown above left sold in 2007 for $55, $165, and $300.
