This week only, one of my favorite vases that my g This week only, one of my favorite vases that my grandmother made (https://www.haldecraft.com/products/this-week-only). The shape! The butterflies! The flowers! Simply beautiful. My grandmother painted this in 1961. Sadly I just noticed that it has a small chip in the top that may eventually turn into a crack; I'm adjusting the price because of that. So far it's still usable, but if it gets worse this may just be an art piece. 

Approximate Width: 5.5 inches at widest point
Approximate Height: 11 inches
Approximate Weight: 1.6 oz
