Hi -- I do not think this is anything but :or:, and I think it is New -- but I just kinda liked the colors in it. The vase is quite bulbous, and about 14 inches high, and 7 inches wide. Nothing fancy on the base, nor any wear. The inside (where is it green) is almost like plastic, or a type of resin (??)
I just thought it was pretty with the kinda splashes of foil colors. So I am not expecting to hear anything -- but "Its Pretty" :24:
Took some photos with/without flash.....the 3 without the flash are more the colors of it.....Just Pretty ;D
Almost :sleep: here....

hi Rose - very attractive, and think you are possibly right with the :or:
Is that a pink 'tab' you've dropped down on the white base - or just one of your pyjama buttons >:D

My gran would have liked the greens in that. I'm surprised looking at this board how much of the glass discussed is opaquely coloured. I would have thought that the beauty of glass was in being able to see through it and that if you wanted coloured things pottery/porcelain would be the preferred medium, but that seems to not be the case - I shall have to start looking out for opaquely coloured well made glass object and see if I can find a gem myself!!

The shape reminds me a lot of Imperial, but I've never seen this decoration or casing in their work. Pretty vase, even if it does turn out to be Chinese.
(Aside: I found a great Imperial Glass art glass site while checking to see if I could find this decor. I put the link under the Glass Reference section if anyone is interested.)
