    Another piece from my neighbour.
    It had water scale inside so assumed it was used as a rose bowl, but it has the protrusion in the base.
    If you turn it over it appears that you could put a candle in it.
    Light green in colour, nice evenly spaced bubbles throughout?
    3.5" in dia. 3" high with a 1.5" opening

    Calling all glass experts I need your help on this one.

      I'd guess candle holder. There has been a lot of pieces here about symmetry with bubbles. These look kind of lined up to me. Glow?
      I hope you are doing well!

      Oh, and could your avatar be cuter!

      stunning !!! very beautiful!!!!
    4. walksoftly walksoftly, 11 years ago
      Thanks for the love & both comments, I'm thinking candle holder the more that I look at this.
      The bubbles are nicely lined up, but no glow.

      Thanks Sean for the love & the comment.

      Thanks for the love & the comment Phil!
      I will try to post another picture later showing how nicely the bubbles line up.

      Couldn't agree more Phil, I think bubbles are on my watch/wish list now.

      Love the order of the bubbles,...........I'd concur with Amber, mod and artistic mid century~early 70's Candlestick!
    13. walksoftly walksoftly, 11 years ago
      Thanks for the love & your input on this wonderful piece Budek.

      David, unique design, I'm also thinking candle holder, as for date, not a clue. Pretty neat the way it seems to "Flow"
    15. walksoftly walksoftly, 11 years ago
      Thanks for the love & your thoughts on this one Kerry.

      Another unsolved mystery. Hedge is not alone
    18. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      Thanks for loving this mystery Aim.
      Sometimes we just don't get the answers that we seek.
    19. Aimathena Aimathena, 10 years ago
      It would look great with a big purple Gerber Daisy in it. :^)
    20. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      Okay Aim, I'll have to take your word on that.
      I had to Google, Gerber Daisy :-)
    21. Aimathena Aimathena, 10 years ago
      Typical male not knowing about flowers, but at least you looked it up :^)
      I think they are such cheerful flowers.
    22. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      I know enough to keep me out of trouble.
    23. Aimathena Aimathena, 10 years ago
      That's always a good thing :^)

      Hi WS,
      It'd be nice to see this in the dark with a candle in it:)
      Mine also has scaling or something in the bottom of 'bowl' i couldn't clean off, I'd assumed it was from old wax, as there were remnants of wax in it when I got it. Whether wax can cause that to happen though i don't know.
    25. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      Wax shouldn't have any effect on glass, who knows what may have been in it at some time. With a candle sitting in it no one will know but you.
    26. Vintagefran Vintagefran, 10 years ago
      Thanks WS,
      I thought it unlikely wax would do that. Maybe it had some water left in it at sometime. As you say though, it doesn't show or spoil its beauty:)

      Thanks for the love racer4four & Antiquehunter1 .

      How funny, I just saw 2 posted items of the same color glass with the controlled bubbles. It was said to be Murano Glass. I also see that you posted this a year ago and was wondering if you have found more of the same since then? This is really nice, I love the controlled bubble pattern and would imagine the expertise needed to create this. Wow!
    29. cactuscorner cactuscorner, 10 years ago
      candle holder - love the color green with the controlled bubbles
    30. cactuscorner cactuscorner, 10 years ago
      i even think it was made in Poland
    31. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      Thanks for the love & your thoughts on this fine piece of glass shareurpassion.
      I've not found any other examples of it, but would love to find one more.
    32. walksoftly walksoftly, 10 years ago
      Thanks for the love cactuscorner & I appreciate your thoughts & input.
