The head vase pre-painted was worth about $250 unless it was a jeannie then it was worth $1300-$1500. Collectors look all over for them in this condition it was stunning. the price tag at a thrift shop is not always it's value.
Thanks for the info, but I'm fully aware of what the REAL head vases are worth. Mine was a just a ceramic craft shop knock off (a name and date was scratched onto the bottom before it was fired and painted). I had no problems painting it. :)
