Topic: Little Hungarian Vase - SAROSPATAK

[antiquerose123]

Hi, I have this little vase that my Grandmother had brought back from Hungary....(MY European Roots).  It says on it SAROSPATAK -- Which I think may be a place.  Sorry --I no speakie the language    I have some more items, just got to dig them out...

BUT hey, it has a (paper) label on it, and do you wish to be added to Gallery?

Anyone know anything more?

Yes please add labels to the Gallery Rose (you don't need to ask, just add them. )

S?rospatak  is a place in northern Hungary - see Wikipedia entry for it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A1rospatak - your vase might show a pic of the castle... see the aerial view of the castle on Wikipedia.

The maker seems to be the Bodrogke Resztur(?) Keramia - again Bodrogke appears to be a place in Hungary - there's a river Bodrog (slight difference in spelling) which gives its name to the valley in which S?rospatak lies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodrog
