    OK...so whadda ya do when confronted with a 'day off' in the middle of a long work trip, a thousand miles away from home in a city in Florida...???

    "Normal people" would probably go to a beach or something, but nobody's ever accused me of being terribly "normal", so **I** made a round-robin trip of several local Goodwill stores instead <LOLOL> and this is maybe my favoritest of a few little bits and things found as 'souvenirs' to take home with me. :-) I first picked it up (and noticed the ROYAL HAEGER name on its bottom) from a shelf full of assorted vases/ceramics because of its unusual shape, then sat it back down and went on to look at a few other pieces because, frankly, the thing is friggin NEON GREEN -- not typically one of my usual colors. ;-) But by the time I'd found a couple more items and needed to go get a shopping basket, my eye kept getting drawn back to the silly thing, so into the basket it went too.

    A quick look around CW shows one more similar piece that mikelv85 posted a few yrs ago, which he calls a "ewer". [I didn't know that term...?] This one is slightly larger, being about 12-1/2" tall and a little over 6" at its widest. Also unlike Mike's, mine is glazed the same color inside and out, and has a felt covered bottom with the ROYAL HAEGER U.S.A. name gilt-stamped in its center. Looks like there was something else stamped below the name (near the outer edge) which is now mostly worn off, maybe a pattern # or something? The last pic shows that a little better, though the camera flash also makes it look way too yellow, the color of the piece is much more accurate in pic#1.

    I really don't know how old it might be...its shape seems very 1960's to me, but the color is so much more 1980's...does anybody know? Comments/suggestions are WELCOMED, if anybody feels like sharing a clue with me?!! :-) :-) :-)

      Me, I love the green! I think 1960s, and you did well to cave in and buy it :))

      Thanks so much racer4four -- it *is* definitely growing on me (despite the green) ;-) especially after it got a quick wipedown w/damp rag for the pics -- it was filthy 'as found'. And for the moment, it most certainly 'livens up' an otherwise typically drab hotel room?!! :-) :-) :-) The same store had a couple other (more conventionally shaped/colored) Haeger pieces which I still might go back and get, even though both of them appeared to be much newer than this one. (via their labeling, ifn's I'm guessing correctly without really knowing for sure...?)

      THANKS ALSO, to AdeleC, buckethead, aura, Newfld, blunderbuss2, fortapache, racer, antiquerose and TassieDevil for punching the <love it> butt0n while y'all stopped by for a look!! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
