No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

It is actually very beautiful and sources say it is very rare - well the price tag shows that

The fish swimming through the seaweed does need a third look, as does the etched base (?)

With the pedestal and over all colouring it looks at first like a piece of Mdina or IOW (and on a bad day, is it supposed to be misshapen like that?)

No disrespect to Tiffany collectors - I know what I like and rare or not I would never pay $35,000.00 for this - the buyer has to be a 'I have most Tiffany and need this to complete my collection' type person
