ID Please, is this a Steuben Art Glass Vase??
« on: August 21, 2017, 12:38:23 PM »
Hi.
Having a walk around a car boot sale recently I could not resist this very large pink glass vase.
In the heading I ask is it Steuben Art Glass because after doing a lot of research it does look like Steuben but I will stand corrected.
It stands an impressive 13.25ins or 34cms tall is 6ins or 15cms across at it's widest and weighs in at an impressive 2.650g.
It has a ground flat base with no markings on it.
I would not like to have been the one blowing this vase as it's over 2.5 kilo's of glass!!
Did Steuben sign all of their glass?
If you look at it closely it appears to be almost a cased glass vase with blobs of colour on the inside.
Sorry about the light reflections.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Joe.

Large, heavy, matte base and generic shape all say modern Chinese to me.

A quick google will cough up hundreds of images of Steuben's production, none look remotely like this.
