Even though I do not claim to be a glass collector, I had seen this vase before and admired it. This time since the dealer was willing to really deal, I decided that it needed a home: mine. It stands a little over 8 inches tall, not marked and is much more beautiful in person. Not sure who made it, would love to know. It's just one of those pieces that are wonderful to look at. I'm sure I will enjoy it for quite some time.
Stunning vase :)

Thanks for the loves everyone and special thanks to Mac63 for the info. The more I learn, the more I like Czech glass.
I am already hooked big time! I love your vases......WOW!
Thanks everyone and yes, I do like Walnut. For those who don't know, Walnut, Iowa is a small town in western Iowa, right off Interstate 80. It is loaded with antique shops and has a big flea market on Father's Day weekend. It's worth with a visit, I have found a couple things there that made the stop worthwhile. Czech items are a little scarce, but there's plenty of everything else. If you like to look, allow a couple hours.
