Green Bubble Vase - Possibly Borske Sklo? ID = Empoli Italy
« on: December 08, 2013, 03:46:29 PM »
Hi,

I found this vase in a charity shop the other day and just wondered what it was. I've had a brief look online and found a similar one on Ebay listed as possibly Borske Sklo? There are no markings other than the bubble effect running over it. There's a slight seam running down either side and its 39cm tall.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That's great...I had no idea it was a decanter, but I suppose if it wasn't missing a stopper I'd have known.

Brilliant...Thanks for your help!

You're welcome, and I forgot: Welcome to the board!

It would be better to load your pics directly to the board instead of just giving links, which may vanish in time and render the thread useless.
There is loads of info how to post pics in the help topics; if you run into any trouble just ask :)
