OFFERING a HAND PAINTED FLORAL SATIN GLASS VICTORIAN ERA TALL VASE. THE HAND PAINTING IS RAISED AND HAS AN ENAMELLED FEEL. THE TOP 1 1/2 EDGE IS NOT SATIN GLASS BUT CLEAR TOPPED WITH GILT AND CLEARLY SHOWS RIBS. HOWEVER THE LOWER AREA IS LIGHT BLUE SATIN GLASS WITH FLORALS AND DOES NOT SHOW ANY RIBBING. NO SIGNATURE THAT I CAN LOCATE. GILT TRIM AT THE TOP EDGE WITH ONE SMALL 1/8 or less CHINK AT THE TOP EDGE (see second to last photo) THAT DOES NOT IMPACT THE BEAUTY OF THIS WHATSOEVER BARELY NOTICEABLE AT ALL. SIZE 12 1/4″ TALL x 3 1/4″ ROUND DIAMETER (at the top edge) x 4 1/8 ROUND DIAMETER (at the bottom edge). ALL THE OTHER GLASS I HAVE RECEIVED FROM THIS SAME SOURCE HAS BEEN SANDWICH GLASS (Boston & Sandwich Glass). MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF THIS WAS THAT IT WAS CONTINENTAL (European). HOWEVER IT COULD CERTAINLY BE SANDWICH or MOUNT WASHINGTON or PAIRPOINT SANDWICH DID DO AN AQUABLUE COLOR GLASS, SOMETIMES COMBINED WITH WHITE (see last view above of a window at the Sandwich Glass Museum) PAINTED IN THE STYLE OF “MARY GREGORY”. THIS IS FROM THE FAMILY OF REBECCA BURGESS WHOSE SANDWICH GLASS COLLECTION IS FEATURED IN THE SANDWICH GLASS MUSEUM I IN SANDWICH, MASSACHUSETTS. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Decorative Collectibles\Vases”. The seller is “timespastantiqueshanover4corners” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped worldwide.
