This unusually large bud vase stands 34 cm (13.5") tall, and is very heavy, weighing nearly a kilo. It has a thick freeform top and just a few bubbles in the stem. The bubbles in the heavy base are different sizes and shapes but arranged in a pattern. It has not been signed and there is no sticker but I think it looks like some controlled bubble 2 tone bud vases I have seen made by Carl Erickson. I would love someone to either confirm this or offer other information as to the origin and age of this vase. Thanks again! Pat
