    I was given this vase last week by a woman who owns a flower shop. I was looking for old chipped or useless vases to use in my art work, she cleaned off her shelves, telling me a Dr. wife brought this in to her and she couldn't use it. I have no idea what kind of glass it is, but I know it is too beautiful to use for my art work. Anyone know the histor/? It is opaline? It is clearly hand blown glass with the swirl handles and the bottom has the area where it was cut from the ball of glass.
    Here are some measurements: I also added 2 more photos
    15 1/2 inches high
    4 1/2 at widest part
    lip 3 inches
    base 4 1/4 inches

      no marks or signatures on the bottom?

      No, just the dull area in the middle where it was cut off. I will take more photos of the bottom and the inside .

      measurements would help as well.

      I have added 2 more photos and the measurements to help anyone identify this piece. There are no markings or signatures on the bottom.-

      I've never seen anything like this. I look forward to one of the glass people weighing in on this one1
