A tall and slender 'solifleur' vase (shown very much smaller than life-sized in the photos above) circa 1900, beautifully hand-enamelled and -gilded with fruiting vines. The glossy enamels of the grapes and vine-leaves are typically French
The vase is in generally good condition, but has a slight 'bloom' to the interior (visible in the detail above, right). This could be removed by an experienced glass restorer

A marbled primrose-yellow vase (shown from two angles, much smaller than life-sized) of flattened octagonal shape. Although this sort of Schaumglas (literally 'foam-glass') is more readily associated with the W.M.F. or Loetz glassworks, it was also produced by Haden, Mullet & Haden of Stourbridge, and this shape is known to be one of theirs

Another acid-matted millefiore mosaic vase (shown about life-sized at top right, and in the lower photos), but we don't think this one is by Fratelli Toso. It contains a large variety of canes, some of which we have seen in old Murano paperweights, and one that is clearly a leaf (visible in the photo at top, right, near the rim). Probably by Artisti Barovier, who were also known for their millefiore mosaic work
