Huge amethyst and clear glass vase
« on: October 26, 2010, 10:04:18 PM »
The vase measures 30cm, has a clear base and stand. The pontil mark is sunk and smooth.

very robust - but very. Not sure where these originate but it would not surprise me to find out it is from Poland or China - provided it is brand new.

Has plenty of natural age wear to the base as can be seen in the second image, deffinately not new. I would hazard a guess at 40s or 50s due to the wear.
