eBay Find of the Day: Blue Opaline Vases

I don't think I could ever get tired of looking at this particular shade of blue.

The vintage vases are made from French opaline glass with a handpainted bird-and-branch design on all four sides, and measure nearly 7 inches tall by about 2 inches deep. They would look equally stunning filled with spring-flowering branches or simply adding a bold dash of color and a dose of old-school elegance to a room.

Current bid: $63 for the pair
