    I often have a story to go with the glass I find, & this one is no exception!
    How many of you have spotted something while you're on a bus? That's what happened to me today - as the bus passed by an op shop, I saw something pink & fancy in the window!
    Needless to say, I was off at the next stop & on a brisk walk back to make it mine.
    This vase is made of two layers of cased glass, a spreading pink over an opaque white interior. It measures 24 cm tall, 10 cm across the crimped top rim, & 6 cm across the base, which has a rough snapped pontil mark.
    There are two clear applied thorny handles, & the front of the vase features detailed enamel decoration of flowers.
    The rim crimp looks like a type of "M crimp".
    I think this vase is most likely of Bohemian origin.

      Many thanks, Bernard! Yes, I pretty hyped about it, hoping that it would be as good as I'd thought on first glimpse...lucky for me it was even better!
