Identification Request
« on: April 12, 2016, 03:54:20 PM »
Hi Everyone

I hope you experts can help identify a glass vase which I bought recently at auction - it formed part of a job lot including Mdina, Okra pieces among others. The vase is 23cm tall what I would call a baluster shape with Clear green swirls to form a "sort of " pair of handles at the top. The body of the vase is shades of green, the surface being not rough but certainly proud. Held up to the light the surface appears " lace like " and see through. The interior is smooth. I've attached a few photos which I hope will give you more info. There is no maker's mark that I can see.

Thanks in anticipation

Hello and welcome to the board. :)

Could you please add larger images so we can see the detail.  A straight on side view, a view looking into it from above, and a base shot will all help. Use a plain white background (sheet of paper or card is fine), and shrink your pics to around 700 pixels along the longest edge, save for web and they should fit our file size limits. If you need help with image posting please just shout and I, or someone else, will come help you if you can't find the answer in our Images Help topic: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,6522.0.html
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd
