QUESTION: sorry for the quality of the photo but I sent one of the vase up right. Hopefully this will help.

Answer
John,
The look is very much like Roseville Pottery's Native American inspired Mostique line. Some of the early marks were done in blue like this.
Vase
Roseville Pottery
Zanesville, OH
Earthenware
1915

It's either the real thing or a good reproduction. I'm not an antiques or collectibles expert, but I'd say this is worth an appraisal. I hope this helps.
