The vases are aprox. 7 1/2" tall and 4 1/2" in diameter. The mark on the bottom of each says "1362 Red Wing USA". The vases are an olive(I would rather say frog green) green with a yellow interior. There are no chips or cracks on either. The inside of each vase has a crackled appearance. We would enjoy knowing the year they were made as well as any other information about them. Thank you so much for your help!It is very much appreciated. Warmest regards, Deb Fye

Answer: Hi Deb

these date to about 1949, the glaze is called Woodland Green. Value is around 35.00 each. thanks, steve n rose
