Treasure Tuesday's Fabulous Thrift Store Find

Found this Caleb Siemon vase at a Goodwill Store in Pasadena California.  I was on the way to a lunch meeting and was running early.  I couldn't just drive by a thrift shop without taking a look.  

I spotted this vase on a lower shelf, and as soon as I picked it up I could tell it was excellent quality. Found the artists signature and date etched into the bottom of the vase.  It was filthy, but in perfect condition, no chips or cracks.  At the bargain price of $4.99 how could anyone couldn't pass it up.  Seriously, who has enough vases.  

Once home I gave the vase a good hand washing with a mild dish soap.  After cleaning the yellow and white gold dust bubbles really came to life.

Below is the vase sitting on my guest bathroom vanity.  As you can see it's almost as pretty empty, as it is with flowers.  I usually put Tulips in it for a more modern look.

Found the vase for sale on an on-line design store for $900.
