Sklo Union?
« on: August 30, 2014, 10:20:44 PM »
I've looked high and low to no avail. Can anyone help me identify this vase? It measures 10-1/4" (26 cm) high x 4-3/8" (11 cm) deep x 3-3/8" (8.5 cm). It has the typical birdbath bottom and each face is very slightly convex (curved outward, dipping in just slightly before the corner). The front and back are selectively frosted; the sides carry the same pattern but are unfrosted… Many thanks.

Bird bath is not 'typical' of SU which is also found without and such bases are used elsewhere too.

A base shot might be helpful though

Here are two pictures. The recess is not as deep as it appears in these pictures - a photographer, I'm not - because the focus seems to be on the bottom of the inside of the vase…  Thanks for looking.
