Topic: Unknown Clear Glass Vase - Skinny

[antiquerose123]

Hi there:
Does anyone have an idea about this ??  Or is this Chinese??  About 12 inches tall, and the base is about 3 inches wide.  Anyone? .....or is this for the Junk pile?

Thanks as always

Reminds me of a red one I have I always assumed either polish or chinese.

Elegant piece - how about using it as a central piece in a bird bath Rose!   :24: You might make a fortune or enough to come over and scour our car boots!!!  Just teasing...happy hunting. steph.

Has been a while since I have seen one of these. I have seen them in blue and red also. My assumption was either Japanese or Chinese. But i could be wrong as I have never seen one with a label.

Thanks all -- I dunno what it is. 

Maybe it should go into my Bird Bath as a perch like STEPH said  :24: but it is kinda nice - but still but can't find anything else on it.  Can you others post your pics?

Thanks

Hm-m-m-m-m, wonder where they got their source of info stating a Murano Glass Vase?  Does this green one in the link look similar to my clear one -- or not?

Just wondering??  http://www.antiquesandcollectables.com.au/ad830/murano-glass-vase/

??.??.??

I think the source for the  Murano attribution was the same source as the price: wishful thinking.

These first sprung up in Bavaria in the early 1900s and have been in production ever since, in many glassworks. The first ones were floor vases, but smaller versions have since been made. In the last 15 or 20 years practically all come out of China.
