I'm sure there's someone out there who knows the story of these beautiful glass pieces, and I hope to hear from all of you! I bought them from a little antique store in Corpus Christi TX over 10 years ago and have no idea what I paid for them - but as I'm a frugal shopper probably less than $50.
The biggest piece looks like an ashtray, the smaller one maybe a match holder (?) and the other one looks like a pestle (mortar & pestle) and although it doesn't have the same bubbles as the two vessels the green color is the same.
Altogether, the three pieces weight in at 5.5 pounds - heavy!
Any information, I'd love to have it!
