I bought this at a yard sale because it was unusual. Has anyone seen anything similar? Maybe someone just made it.

Hi, Welcome to CW. I believe this is American Pressed Glass (AMPG), made in the Victorian era. I wonder if the piece on the left is a candle holder? Here are a couple of links that you may find useful. However, we have a glass expert around these parts, and I hope he's not on a world cruise and will stop by.

I particularly like the flare on your pieces, and the way the pattern changes in the flair.

All the best.
