The vases were decorated with delicate hand-painted flowers and butterflies and were gilded around the base and rim, giving them a luxurious look.

One day, they decided to take the vases to a reputable antique dealer for an appraisal.

They also informed the businessperson that the vases were worth a significant amount of money.
