Topic: What is this? Italian? What would you call it?

[sweepklean]

HI,

I bought this at an estate sale where the lady had collected tons of Italian Empoli glass. I bought this because I have never seen anything like it. It is tall, 17".
I need help figuring out what it is, time period, etc.
Thanks.

Your pictures are too small and won't enlarge, so we can't really help. You have 125 kb per picture

I tried to send larger ones, but they would not upload.

I would very strongly suspect it is Empoli.
It's an oversized, lidded, decorative brandy glass. 
I had a neodynium one, without a lid.
Yours does appear to be broken, you need to use proper glass glue to fix it.

Its not broken.

Thanks for the help.

Is your's one piece, or two?

[chopin-liszt]

All one.
That's why I assumed yours was broken. I can't see well enough from those photos to see that there is anything suggesting there was some way of propping the middle bit onto the foot.

We do have "recipes" for getting photos that will be accepted and that will blow up, but which set of instructions you use depends on what computery bits you use too.
