Mod: Welcome to the Board, Wenda. I have split your query out of the "book" thread that you posted in so that this gets a better chance of responses.

ok, I have no pictures to look at ... so it's guessing time!  ;)

Does it really say 14505 ?

I think this could be M-505, rabbit, height 20 cm (approx 8")

Hi royroy and welcome.
Each one is worth exactly whatever somebody is willing to pay for it in that particular situation, at that particular time, not a penny more and not a penny less.
We don't tend to discuss values much here - they're far too arbitrary.  ;)

Hi Wenda,  would it be possible to see a picture of your rabbit please so we have some reference to refer to in the future?

Inca will surely be correct about it being M as she knows so much about this glass.
 
I have a couple of these, but not in blue. One with a sfumato finish says FM Ronneby Sweden M 506, the other is Marcolin Crystal, all black with Marcolin Sweden C9 on the base.  I will take some pictures and post them here and hope you will do the same, that way we will have all the rabbits in one rabbit run!!  :)

As for value, best look up completed sales on eBay...as Sue says, they are worth what they sell for.
Rosie.

Royroy's query was new.

Yes, I noticed that Sue, which is why I thought the whole thread was new... I will remember to check more carefully in future. 
As you say, any glass is only worth what people will pay for it,  I have had some bargains and been pushed right to the limit on very similar items....It is the luck of the draw in many instances.
