Hi!
Could you help me identify these two small vases?
I just can't find out anything about them.
They are very lite and transparent feels like china.
On onne of the vases is painted Othel by Walter Paget and on the second Rosalind by Walter Paget.
On the bottom of they have number 24.

I think these are probably continental (German or Austrian) and date to the early 20th century. They show scenes from Shakespeare plays (Othello and As You Like It), but I am fairly sure these are printed not painted. Walter Paget was a well known artist.

Thanks for the help!
Do they have any value, or better to take them to a charity shop! 🙂

I doubt if they have very significant value; this is the only thing I found in a very quick search http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Antique-PORCELAIN-DRESSING-TABLE-TRAY-Othello-after-Walter-Paget-P...
which didn't sell.
