Topic: Ruby Cut To Clear Lg Tall Jar or Vase

[eglass]

Hi folks!

This piece is another one found at an estate sale, the same sale I found a Karlik and a Loetz piece (thank you Craig!).

This measures 8" tall and only 3.25" diameter - either a vase or a tall jar, not sure which. The cutting looks like that done during the English Regency period, quite busy - lots of gold outlining the fans etc.

Any ideas as to origin or original use?

Thanks!

Kelli

Hi again, It is not my style of glass and I am sure someone will come along that knows what it is.....  I want to go to sales with you though....  Can I be your new best friend?? :thup:

LOL, Craig - sure, just come on down to Albuquerque and we'll hit some sales.

Craig - my oldest son, daughter in law and grandkids live in Sumner, not too far from you. He didn't inherit the "glass hunting gene" however, so there's no competition there.

...the same sale I found a Karlik and a Loetz piece...

I meant KRAlik of course, sorry for the typo.
