 :hi:

Bought this Iridescent Glass Seashell from a thrift store?  It is pretty, but no idea IF it is anything but Asian Art Glass?  Any ideas at all?  It is about 5 inches long.  No label, no marks.  It is all closed in (not an open shell) and I have looked around on the Net -- and not finding anything close to it 

   Thanks, any idea ??

I really like it too, Rose.     My personal feeling is that it is very well made and is thus not necessarily from East Asia.  I would try the talc powder trick to see if there is any sign of a maker's mark - which can be nigh on impossible to see without a few smarts.

I will take a closer look at it, real close to see.  It is pretty, but I am not even finding a closed glass shell on the Net so far -- at all  :huh:  Thanks ahremck, will try talc..

okay ---- 6 years later, I might have stumbled upon the ID of this one.  The link that I am posting DOES have a label on it and it look very much like mine.  It is a Glass Eye Studio piece....??   


So I will let GMB members take a peek at the ** LINK HERE ** to get Your opinions if you think this is a match, and an ID for my shell,

Thanks in advence

Looks like a good match to me, Rose. 
You could always email the studio, as they have a website with a 'contact' button.
Nice piece!
