Help identifying vases 7 Months, 3 Weeks ago

I have 2 of these. I can't figure out what they are specifically so I can try to determine value. I'm pretty sure the mark on the bottom is Sevres but don't know if they're real.  |

Need a very sharp closeup of mark. In the meantime check out Porcelian & More and check out fake marks on website. The double crossed l is one of the most copied marks there is and is still being used by companies in France. How old do you think it is? I'm wary of the metal screw like on bottom of vase. They are pretty vases.

Thank you. I have an article from this site about Sevres being the most faked since the mark is so easy to duplicate. These are from my grandma and that's basically all I know about them. I do have to get a better camera for help here. When I do, I'll post again.

Beautiful piece but yes, Sevres has been highly faked thru the years and for a large number of years. You may have something 50 years old and it still be an old reproduction piece. Nonetheless, home decorators love them so even if it's not original it has a high value if you can find an interior designer using that style in someone's home.
