painted vase -no markings

Hi- I have this painted vase and am not sure who and when it was made-any ideas welcome.It is in a bit of a delapidated state.

thanks Sue

Without seeing the base it is a bit of a guess, but I would suggest chalkware, English manufacture, 1930's to 1950's.

Thanks - I couldn't attach 2 photos like before they changed all this. I'm not sure how.

Anyway here's a photo of the base.It is probably chalkware as where the paint's been knocked off it is white.

 One known Brand is a company called Ranleigh Ware, though as to the actual Maker things are less clear. some are marked with at least impressed numbers and sometimes more. there were either a number of manufacturers or it was sold under a number of different names .. probably with a paper or foil sticker attached.   http://www.bidorbuy.co.za/item/59735619/A_RANLEIGH_WARE_VASE_made_in_England.html
