Hi Brenda and welcome to the board. Can we have a shot of the base of the item as well please - this can often tell us useful things, along with some dimensions. And knowing where you are can also often be helpful - i.e. if you're in trhe USA or Europe or down under. You can add your location into your profile so it shows alongside your posts always. Thanks.

It looks like an ice bucket in traditional cut Bohemian crystal to me - either by Crystalex/ Bohemia or by one of the many other makers in this style.

Thanks for the reply.  The jar measures 6-1/2" tall x 6" in diameter without the lid.  attached is a pic of the bottom.  thanks, brenda

Because of all the wonderful help I believe my "ice bucket" is Bohemia "Pinwheel" pattern.  thanks so much to all.  brenda

Exactly, I agree with Ivo,
it almost surely comes from glassworks Bohemia Poděbrady (part of Crystalex group), Czechoslovakia. Dating is difficult, I would say 70tie or 80ties, cut is not rich as previous or later.

Can I ask for better photos?
