Description

RARE LARGE CUT GLASS VASE CZECH ALEXANDRITE NEODYMIUM SELENIUM BOHEMIAN VIOLET BLUE PINK THIS GORGEOUS ALEXANDRITE GLASS VASE MEASURES 12" HIGH, 5 1/2" ACROSS THE TOP AND 4" ACROSS THE BASE, AND THE GLASS WALL IS 1/2" THICK. IT IS A SUBSTANTIAL AND WEIGHTY PIECE. THE COLOR IS LIGHT BLUE TO VIOLET, DEPENDING ON THE LIGHT SOURCE, AND DELIGHTFULLY PINK UNDER UV LIGHT, WHICH I WOULD ATTRIBUTE TO SELENIUM OXIDES. THE CUTS AND CROSS HATCHINGS ARE DEEP, INTRICATE AND CRISP. A FEW TINY AIR BUBBLES ARE VISIBLE, AS WELL AS TWO FLOW LINES MADE IN THE MOLTEN GLASS DURING MANUFACTURE AND COOLING, ALL CONSISTENT WITH HAND BLOWN GLASS. CIRCA 1920-1930's. THE POLISHED RIM IS CLEAN AND SMOOTH, AS IS THE ENTIRE VASE. ONE NEARLY INVISIBLE FLEABITE AT THE INSIDE TOP. THE VASE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. * I ACCEPT PAYPAL ONLY. * I DO NOT SHIP INTERNATIONALLY AT THIS TIME. * I SHIP USPS PRIORITY, INSURED * SIGNATURE REQUIRED AT DELIVERY. 1) ALL ITEMS ARE SOLD 'AS IS' AND SALE IS FINAL. 2) REFUNDS ARE ONLY CONSIDERED IN THE EVENT THAT AN ITEM HAS BEEN GROSSLY MISREPRESENTED. 3) PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE, AND REVIEW THE PHOTOS FOR DESCRIPTION.
