Title: CRACKLE Glass - Green Ashtray ? ID = Viking Glass
Post by: antiquerose123 on June 26, 2011, 06:25:33 AM: :hi: Picked this up this weekend.

I believe it is a ashtray (or bowl with crimped edges??) but lean more towards an Ashtray. Nice crackle glass, and green. The bowl has some good wear. I am thinking if might be Blenko from the green color, and I think they did some crackle glass. Not totally sure what the base of Blenko looks like yet...........but if I had to guess right off the bat, that is what I think. About 6.75 inches wide, and about 2.50 inches tall.

Next guess would be :or: :thud:

Any ideas, or know what age this might be? Thanks, as always!! :kissy:

** P.S:
How do you Like the blocks I put in for Size comparison? They stand for my initials here (and real initials in life). Kinda neat idea..... :thup:
