Topic: Imperial Glass Clear/Gold 973 Candy Box -- Need Help

[ks85]

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows anything about this Imperial candy box. 

Having, the sticker I had assumed it would be an easy one to locate.   However, after much searching, I haven't been able to locate another piece in the same pattern and colors....in any shape, let alone this one.

I first thought the "973" was  the shape number, but after looking at Replacements ltd I believe it is the pattern number/name.  I'm still confused and not 100% certain though.

here is a link to their listings of "973"

Any help would be very appreciated.   Thanks for looking.

Thanks for the reply Lustrousstone.
I have been able to find the same shape in both green and clear.  But I haven't been able to find the same thumbprint type design in clear&gold on any items.  I didn't know it was a remake of a 19th century piece though.
