I found this wonderful vase in a Salvos op shop (thrift store) last week. My first example of Kralik millefiori & I hope there will be more to come! I'd actually never seen a piece of this type of glass in person before, so it was a very exciting find. It is quite tall at 23 cm, & the iridescent surface is mirror like - especially on the footed base, where it has an intense "oil on water" effect.
What a beaut!!!
Absolutely gorgeous!
What a terrific vase - and a thrift store find, too! I wish I could come across vases like this at stores in my area! :)
Thanks so much Efesgirl & sklo42!
Thanks also Michelle - I am pretty much obesessed with op shopping/thrifting...I have a few favourite shops that I visit often to raise the odds of finding treasures like this...it's definitely my preferred way to shop, because you never know what you might find!
I've always loved Kralik's millefiori pieces Lace. Gorgeous sheen, great colors... beautiful piece!
Many thanks, Rick55!
