Hello CW Members, Followers, Friends and Visitors.
It's not good for the stress buying big vase like this during the pandemic, this enormous rare Heckert vase at 24 inches 1/2 being in the mail for more than 6 weeks+, it seem an eternal wait, this coming from an experience seller, so he did a phenomenal job on the packaging, he event confess to me, he did remember how big this was until he pack it up for me.
I am bless to get this one, I good friend email me when this vase was listed with a ridiculous starting price, but hey I know, I am not the only one that will recognize the décor and this very rare shape, this auction could come crazy, just few hour in the listing, I make an offer "But It Now" to the seller and was accepted with some surprise for sure, but very happy he did.
Some time ago, I found the small version also in Red Marmopal, I remember pay the small one close to the same price as I pay the big one.
Marmopal glass are very expensive, it's nice when you pay cheap for it, actually all my Fritz Heckert marmopal glass I pay below there retail price.
Very excited to get them reunited.
This Colossal Vase stand at 24.50 inches, the base is 8.25 inches in diameter and the ruffled top is 10.25 inches in diameter.
The glass thickness on this vase at the ruffled rim is .25 inches, this is very thick.
Hope everyone is safe and well.
Many thanks to all of you for Viewing.
Enjoy

A beautiful piece. Congratulations.
Absolutely stunning!
And I understand your concerns about waiting so long for it arrive...I recently got a parcel that took over two months to arrive from the USA, & it was only a very small item, so not much to worry about compared to this huge vase!
Spectacular!
Lovely, glad the wait is over for you, I still am waiting on orders since early March, well done!

Thanks Karen, I will not take another contract to find another one like this, yes Rare for sure first, but also expensive, I was lucky to get this one for very cheap price, misleading ID, that's the secret to get cheap, 2 similar are listed on Ebay, both are Changeant, a Gold and a Green, there listed for years, I admire them for so long, now I can admire mine and it's Marmopal, LOL.
Many thanks for being such good friend on CW and see my beginning here, like kivatinitz, you see me growing up and learn, but hey, I just start to get fun, LOL, and learning it's an affair of lifetime.
Many thanks for your comment and appreciation.
