We are looking for a Philanthropic buyer who is generous and desires to help people in need.

Item details: This beautiful hand painted vase stands 10 inches tall, 7 inches wide and 4-1/2 inches thick and is in excellent condition for being vintage (possibly near Victorian) in age. The residue on bottom from Antique/Auction House stickers and such have not been cleaned to preserve its heritage.

I have searched extensively and can not find any pictures, descriptions and/or auctions (past or present) for this vase. It is truly "a one of a kind find." Because it is production number FIVE this adds to the postulation of its rarity as most Bristol items can be found with much higher numbers (due to higher volumes of the designs having been produced).  

I am sacrificing this keepsake for my family. I was given two items from my Grandmother after she passed; this vase and an "old timey" Sunbeam toaster. I will never, ever part with the toaster.

Situation: Sparing the full details, my wife and I have opened our home to people off the street, friends and acquaintances. In doing so we have helped people in dire need for more than 30 years and have helped just shy of 30 individual people over the years. Some worked-out great, who's lives turned around, some we are not so sure about. Bottom line: Student loans, mortgage and severe dental and health issues plague our family but at our age (60 and 64) now we are the ones in need of help.

Reasonable Offers of approximately $80K or so will be considered.

Thank you and God bless you always.
