The silver rims hallmarked with Minerva head for .950 silver and silver makers mark of Maison Bloch Eschwége active from 1921-1946 which dates this vase right on the period. Maison Bloch did quite a lot of silver mounting for Baccarat, often on carafes and perfume bottles. This suggest the silver mount was ordered by Baccarat and not mounted at a later stage.

Baccarat created a limited edition of 99 vases of this model in 2001 under the name Memoire. This model however had blue and silver enamel leaves instead
