I don't have a Blenko Ref. book and my Scandinavian Ref. books have nothing like this, the 3-fingered Handle. The color is a rich cased Tangerine and it measures 13 1/4" to the top of the tiny spout and is slightly over 2 3/4" in diameter. The pontil is recessed and rough. Anyone recognize it. RER(BOB)
It certainly does! Thank you Ripley206 and than you aghcollect for the love. RER(BOB)

Thanks Lee and smiata for the love. BOB
Just something about this color that I love. I'd normally spend hours trying to find the answer for you, but here's the Blenko site, it has tremendous information on their glass - since you have such a perfect picture of the pontil, I'm pasting the link that talks about their pontils. Hope you find it!

"...according to "Popular 50's& 60's Glass, Color Along the River" by Pina, they were made by Rainbow Glass, catalog number D219, c 1966..."

I honestly had never heard of Rainbow Glass.....even at my ripe old age, I am still learning. Kanawha and Pilgrim, I had heard of. Thank you TallCakes and eye4beauty for taking the time to help me out and thank you shareurpassion, Moonstonelover21 and SEAN68 for the loves. BOB
I see that they actually called this color "Tangerina" so I was pretty close on the color name. RER
Thank you musikchoo for the love. BOB
