from.

The marks are usually numbers which relate to sets or 'garnitures' of vases and tell you where the vase is to be placed,middle right 2 etc..for example.(usually but not always)

The base looks normal but the green bits on the top and middle parts looks like satin glass. Just curious.

Could you get a close up of the bands,some vases were silvered and the silver goes almost black over time although I don't think yours is silver,just blathering now,if you collect glass you should join the Glass Message Board(a close relation of this one!)
