Title: ID PLEASE: Unusual Opaline Opalescent Swirled Color Snifter / Goblet
Post by: dorian_graye on December 19, 2009, 03:30:27 PM

This was purchased at a resale shop for a small amount. The glass is hand blown and has an uneven rim and applied stem. The majority of the glass is opalescent, but with beautiful, opaque swirls of color. The stands 8" inches tall. Anyone have any ideas on origin? I am led to assume that it might be Italian, but this would be the first of the like that i have seen. It feels fairly heavy for it's size.
