Here is a 5"H x 6 1-2"W amber glass lion topped oval box with hobnail accents, that was originally made by Heisey Glass in 1949, this amber version made in 1981 by the Collectors Guild (CG imprint on bottom), for Imperial Glass, item #1519
Happy BD CW Leo the lion, esp my special favorite lioness LaurenRedmond, hope you have a fabulous year ahead of joy, good health and good luck

This is a wonderful piece of glass Jenni.
Colour: unusual and attractive.
Lion: modeled proudly
Case: such a great shape
But it's that beading that really gets me!
This magnificent lion, looks like he's floating on some sort of a ship! Happy B-Day LR. Wish you all the best life has to offer. :)
Most beautiful lion which seems quite rare, don't think I have ever seen one! Treasure of a glass box !~
Oh my goodness!!!! I Love it!
Oh wow, thank you so much Jenni, I'm honoured you would think of me and wish me health for the coming year, it's very kind of you!
As for your glass dish, I think it's beautiful. The lion on top is so proud and regal. I love when they're done like this, it's like the sort you see guarding the steps to very important buildings :)
My thanks to you all for the kind love

Karen thank you my friend for your terrific praise & appreciation for this special piece. Wouldn't you say the color is closer to cognac, but it's officially called amber by Imperial so that's why I described it as such. Like you I think the strips of hobnail beading are most eye catching & creative
Thank you DejaVu for your awesome compliment & kind wishes for our Lauren, you're always so thoughtful. I agree, the lion does look in a suspended state, it's such a pretty Heisey design & the last by them I have currently, would like to add more but they're becoming quite costly
Phil thank you for your marvelous praise & you're right, these are very hard to come by ... I found a Heisey dealer in the midwest who had this & some other rare beauties I've been fortunate to add recently. He is quite a proud treasure of a lion for sure
Thank you Ralph for your wonderful compliment & I'm so happy you liked this! Pretty impressive and now I've just got to figure out what to keep in it to go along with its elegance
Happy August birthday to you dear Lauren, of course I will always be hoping for the best of everything for you, especially health after all we've gone through the past few yrs all around the world. Hope you had or will have a delightful BD sweet friend :) Really glad you enjoyed this lion, he is sitting up top surveying his kingdom I expect. A guarding lion he certainly is, great call & thanks as always for your fabulous praise
Many thanks Mike for the kind love, it's most thoughtful of you and I'm very grateful
Very glad you liked this glass lion piece Faith, thank you so much for the kind love
JB thanks so much for all your kind loves for my posts today, I will get to each one, and am always, always thrilled when you stop by & for your awesome support :)
