    not really an art glass piece, but I really think this is a great piece of design. 19 century fly an wasp catcher.

      You know what they say, "Art is in the eye of the beholder". That's why there are so many utilitarian items in MOMA.

      LOL...ok, got me...Upon seeing the item I immediately thought wine bottle with aeration hump before reading the description...not realizing of course that the hump in this case is open for the insects to fly into and drowned. They still sell this design but in plastic nowadays...

      I saw something on these in the past few days. Good idea, so why can't we get them now?
