Hi there....long time no see.
Picked this up a while ago and getting to post it now. Anything, or nothing at all??
~ Glass Dolphin riding on a wave ( I think)
~ Weighs over 6 pounds (so pretty heavy)
~ About 13 inches tall
~ Base is about 5 inches across
~ Length of dolphin is about 10 inches long
Can't see no marks, and do not see any seam marks at all.....so ?? here. Looks better made than some other things I have seen. You expect it to be lighter when you pick it up, but a very solid chunk! Is this Satin Glass or just called Frosted Glass. Any ideas at all? (I thought maybe Westmoreland Satin Glass, but that is an UN-educated guess...)
thanks as always... :)

Satin glass, frosted glass = same thing, different words
He's rather nice Rose

Thanks Christine for the Reply!
Yes, he looks better made than some....and really has weigh to it. Kinda shocked me when I went to pick it up that is was that heavy. Here is a base shot. Might be one that never gets figured out. I looked through Ebay and found nothing the same, so that might be a Good sign (not mass produced ?? )
Thanks

Gosh that's a huge piece of glass Rose. I wonder whether he is something like Rosenthal or that kind of thing... perhaps 80's onwards? I've never seen anything like it. I wonder maybe Mikasa might be worth checking. I have no idea if they did this sort of thing but I have a huge bowl made by them that is part frosted/satin glass.

Hi there:
Just wondering IF these frosted Dolphins on Ebay *might* be related.....Kinda look similar, and they have an asking price of $ 249.99 ???
