Post by: brucebanner on January 27, 2014, 11:04:33 PM

Hello there i keep coming across this type of glass, i have no idea how it is made and why it just looks so different in all types of light, it just glows even in low light levels, i have a few of these, cups, vases, wine glasses it surely all can't be Italian, it always has such a lovely feel to it. this has age wear to the base and a broken pontil. It's 7 inches across.
