Title: Any ideas on this item with bird base? Imperial Glass?
Post by: jotz34 on February 07, 2010, 08:40:45 PM

Hello, I picked this up at a flea market but am having trouble finding out manufacturer and even what it is. Is it a goblet or vase or what? Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks
Jean

Thanks so much for the information-much appreciated.  Since I am snowed in with nothing better to do I will hunt down my black light and give that a whirl. Again, I appreciate it, Jean
