I bought a hand-painted vase from an estate sale. It has an unclear signature and is 8.75 inches tall, from 1998. I believe it might be by Christine Schneider due to its style and shape. What is its value, is it indeed by Christine Schneider, and how should I describe it in a listing?

I need help identifying and appraising this painting. The signature appears to be George Stone, possibly George Stave, and it is very detailed and accurate in terms of what it represents.
