hi is this item for sale. thanks
Thanks Obscurities ,I discovered what this was to my delight just a few days ago. I knew it was a quality piece but only bought it because of the bright colours and also I wanted a momento of my holiday. I was on the lookout for Bohemian glass but there was very little where I looked in BA and Montevideo. I like what I've seen of your collection . I think I may know you from the Bohemian glass list??? I'm Marty from downunder
Hi Fenton-hobnail I think it is against the rules of this site to buy and sell on it?? I will think about selling in the new year it is now in my Bohemian glass collection. Pricing is always a hassle and I have searched for a precedent but these rarly come up. Marty
