    What's a "HOW-TO" you asketh? Well when you don't know how-to name something then it must be a "How-To" or a "whats-it" when it baffles you. This is obviously a Glass Vase with some redeeming graces that looks like a Volcano. It's got a shape with bubbles, swirls, streaks, undulations, bumps and bends. It is mostly greenish-olive with rusty-reddish streaks allover. The rim is uneven and smooth and the base is squarish, recessed with a lot of wear. My "How-To" measures 7" tall by 5 1/2" wide and has a crest mark underneath with a 75 inside....probably the date of manufacture (creation). I wasn't going to upload it then I thought, it must have feelings....it has a right to have it's 15 minutes of fame too. Well here it is in all it's splendor. RER (LOUMANAL)
