Happy easter.
I am requesting your opinion on the candle holder in the picture. It has a diameter of 10 " (240 mm to be exact) and it is a dish with 12 drawn out points and a candle cup in the middle.
As circular was not sufficient for the glass maker, he managed to fold one section upward - presumably to allow it to stand closer to the wall.
The glass is a light pink and opal - the opal sections are thicker than the inbetween pinks. The underside is an added pink disc, no pontil marks or anythying.
Now I'm drawn between priceless Murano with a big double name, and a garish American maker who has gone out of business due to bad taste.
Can anyone point at it and say "oooooh" or "yeccch", please.

Fostoria Heirloom I think. Dave Peterson's book page 34

Beastly it is, then. Thank you Christine for knowing where to look.
I just made the mistake of looking at Fostoria Heirloom in Google image - now I won't sleep all week.
