    My grandmother had this vas in her room for as long as I can remember. My mom gave it me during my visit this summer but she didn't know anything else about it. The vase is made of glass. It appears to be black, however, when I hold it against a light source, it has a dark-purple shine.

    Thanks for looking:)

      You can see the deepness of the purple coming through in your photo & I agree with you it is eye catching. A wonderful memory you will always have of your grandmother
