Here's the last of my finds for this week. It's a little yellow art glass pitcher about 5 1/2" tall. It was on the counter with a Murano swan bowl at our local GW. They wanted a few dollars for this but wanted twenty five for the Murano piece. Way too much for something I really didn't like and I thought this was nicer because of the JIP shape. While yellow is not my favorite color this does have splashes of white with a clear handle. -Mike-
Thank you nutsabotas6... and hey neighbor to you as well...lol
Oh she's a beauty. I love that cheerful color.
Thanks Aim :)
Thanks Jay.... Maybe I am getting better at this glass thing .....lol
Lovely vase mike, agree with JH, its rather unusual with the handle, it almost looks like it was added as an afterthought
Thanks Fran...... it is a bit of an "odd duck" :)
Lol..good observation icollectglass..i agree:) i wonder when Jack in the Pulpit vases got their name, i guess it was the Victorians, they seem to have loved the name Jack, Jack the Ripper & all the nursary rhymes, Jack & Jill, Jack be nimble etc. etc.
Here's some interesting info some of which I already knew.... The Victorians also used flowers as a language to communicate messages of love and sentiment. The Jack-in-the-pulpit stood for fire,and loyalty. It's also the flower for the seventh wedding anniversary. The fire aspect seems to tie in perfectly with the making of glass. -Mike-
