    Description
    Up for auction is a Gien vase made in 1989 to commemorate the bicentennial of the French Revolution. This vase decpicts two gentleman smoking tobacco and the phrase in French: Vive la Nation et le bon tabac. Translates to Long live the country and the good tobacco?! I honestly don't remember enough European history to understand the connection, but there it is. Stands about 8 1/2 inches tall.  NO chips, cracks or crazing. Made in France.
    Please consult ALL the pictures for condition. There are 5 photographs on the listing.  If you have ANY questions that the pictures can't answer please message me and I will help in any way I can. See pics for size and  condition and consider them as part of the description of this auction.

    Happy to consider reasonable offers on most any items that are NOT on a 7 day auction. ****
    I  would  be happy to combine auctions to save on shipping. Please email with any questions. Stored in a pet-free, non smoking  house, but please remember vintage pieces may have had a home before mine. As a rule, I generally just dust off the items and send them on their way. I do not clean, polish or scour away sticker residue. I leave that to the new buyer.
    I do not pretend to be a collectibles or antique expert. What I think is unimportant, you may think is vital. So ask me!  I include pics., as most sellers do, to better describe the item and its condition. If you need more, just ask.
    Thanks for looking!
