Title: ID help scrambled fountain
Post by: LesBeatiques on February 12, 2014, 05:56:47 PM

Hello all!

I have a feeling that this going to be one those pieces that'll be difficult to attribute to any specific maker but if we can narrow it down to a rough date and region I would be overjoyed.

The weight has a diameter of roughly 3-1/8 and it stands 2-5/8" tall. Several crude white core cane sections in pink, blue, yellow, green and purple form a fountain like design with one central control bubble. The "fountain" rises out of a bed made up of multicolored crushed glass in the form of a four lobed flower. The glass has a slight purple/grey tinge and it rests on a flat polished base.

Thanks for all your help!
Cheers,
Eric

I don't think you'll get this narrowed down to a region. Date wise I would think mid-1900s or earlier but that is just a swag. With this weight though I don't think knowing a date or manufacturer is going to alter the value or its desirability either.
