Topic: Clear and green glass piece what is it?

[Tony H]

Hi guys
I found this piece in a secondhand shop a couple of days ago the owner thought it was a piece junk so I got it for NZ$2 it is 78mm square and 65mm high the top edge is 9mm thick and it weighs 689gms  IMHO it is a quality piece very well made, but I have not seen anything like this before so do not know where to start.

I certainly have not seen anything like this before.  Could it be modern art, made at college or university?  I would love to know what that is behind your item though.

Could it be a piece of architectural glass I wonder?

Sommerso bowl would be my first thought. As to maker, who knows!

Looks German to me - perhaps Ichendorf?

Tony,
the top looks a bit bumpy or is it dirty?? Mandruzatto is all highly polished.

I still think German - and like to add Ilmkristall (GDR) as a candidate.
