Hello all,
I am looking for more information about this piece:
It has a H/butterfly molded into the glass and from what I read it is a signature marking for Heinrich Hoffman. I think the date is between 1932 and 1934. This is an absolutely beautiful piece, there is maybe one very small chip on the base. There are other marks and swirls and a couple of tiny bubbles that appear to be part of the glassmaking process.
The base is smooth glass, and it is contrasted with the frosted glass of the figurine and the 'water'. I absolutely love it, and haven't seen one exactly one like it before. I have seen descriptions of the reproductions, and this one definitely has the 'butterfly' trademark.
I appreciate any help, thanks!

It does seem to be actual real Vaseline glass.
