I'm hoping one of you glass expert will help me out with this.
I was helping my neighbor with some back-breaking landscape work, and he gifted this to me as a thanks for helping him out!
It measures 18 cm H, 8.5 cm at the ground mouth, and 12.5 cm at the widest part.
Love the pulled feather technique, would love to know who made it and anything else you could tell me about it.
Thanks so much!
Cheers!

Very pretty. But it's a pulled feather art glass vase made in China Very popular vase.
beautiful:)!
Thank-you Moonstonelover Lee for your help, much appreciated!
So I take it it would be an in-expensive item, likely massed produced?
Thank you Lee, Sean, and vetraio for the "loves"!!
Cheers!
On eBay the vase runs anywhere from $9.99-$39.99 and teleflora uses these too. The only reason why I know is because I almost bought one many months ago
But had the answer from my friend Dave Littlefield. He told me what it was xoxo
Lee :)
Thank-you Lee and czechman for your help!. It's not the answer I was hoping for, but I kinda suspected it. :(
I have made hopeful choices in glass. We all have. Even with my glass prices getting more costly. I ask my friends who are knowledgeable before buying :) since every penny counts.
Thank you Lee and czechman, you are both right! I love the whole art glass thing, but there is so much to learn! I just built a new cabinet to house my collection, was hoping to put some stellar glass pieces in it!
How would one with limited knowledge get a worthy collection started?
Btw, I shortened my CW name from pickrknowsnothinboutglass!!
Pickrknows, give me a break. I think you are too much like me. "Gifted"! You probably drooled all over it & he gave it to you because he didn't want to have to clean it afterwards! LOL!!
Hey , after finding out what it is, I think he got the better part of the deal! Live and still learning blunderbuss!
Well, now you know not to sell your "free services" so cheap next time. Couldn't you have found something like an old sword or gun to drool on?
