Title: Tall vase
Post by: mpleister on February 01, 2024, 06:13:18 PM

I picked up this vase yesterday while out shopping for depression glass. Online searches resulted in a lot suggestions of Murano, but I am doubtful. I asked a Murano group and there was a thought it was Czech. Any thoughts on this piece?

It measures 12" tall by about 6" wide at the widest and weighs just under 3lbs.
