Title: ID hanging hearts, morning glory vine, what else they've been called!
Post by: TripleLutz on February 09, 2013, 05:12:30 PM

Curious about the maker of this non-Bohemian vase. 7 1/4" tall x about 3 3/4" wide. Seems I've seen the hanging hearts or morning glory vine or whatever motif employed by several known glassmakers... so it's probably been copied by many others. Ground pontil, some shelf wear.
Thanks for any opinions!  :)

Came across this...  http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/38013-early-tiffany-corona-period
Mine could just be a copy of this type... also, not sure I'd trust the attribution considering the discussion on the thread.
How often was Tiffany not signed?

Have you checked Imperial freehand to see if the shape or pattern are a match?

Can't find a match myself... but I think I'll send a picture to Ernie Albanese and ask his opinion.  https://sites.google.com/a/imperialartglass.com/www/home
Thanks for the suggestion!  :)
