Murano,Sklo union,British art glass, Cobalt blue clear cased vase. Help
« on: October 23, 2009, 10:34:00 PM »
Not my usual thing just bought it as i liked it. And the wife wants me to get rid of my Sowerby art deco 2597 pink vase. Have not got a clue about this type of glass so any help appreciated. It stands 13" high 6 1/2" wide mouth and the base is 3 1/2" diameter. And weighs 1500 gms. To the base it has a polished pontil, which have signs of age related wear so i don't think it is new. The colour is cobalt blue cased in clear flint glass.

Whatever it is, it is not Sklo Union. The Sklo Union factories only made pressed glass!
