    Here I Have an Amethyst Purple Mid Century Art Glass Colored Vase.
    Designed to be bulb forcing vases, but anything from stemmed flowers to pencils will look lovely in this beautiful little vase.
    It even look gorgeous left empty.
    Vase measures approximately...
    4" tall
    1½" rim opening
    1 3/4 rim edge
    1 1/4 top of neck
    2 3/4" bottom of neck
    1 3/4" base
    Its marked EEC (Eastern European Company)
    It sure is a cutie
    And that is not dust, its lint from the paper towel I dried it with ;)

      You are most welcome *i*
      AR mentioned spring flowers having a difficult start due to the weather, so of course I thought of her with this vase, And she shares my love of purple as well.
    4. Aimathena Aimathena, 10 years ago
      HA! Love it Phil. Good One. AR will love that one.
    5. Aimathena Aimathena, 10 years ago

      You are bad! Now I will make my husband steal lilacs from the neighbors!
      It's perfect.
      Phil made the perfect joke.
      "I" is right, the color is perfect.
      You are perfect too...so sweet.

      Hi Aims, i read you no longer have this. I wondered if you knew if it were neodymium glass? I have the stuff on my mind lately after discovering a vase i have is neodymium. I just wondered because the colour looks bluer in the center photo compared to the others.
    13. Aimathena Aimathena, 10 years ago
      Hi VF, AmberRose might know, she has it now. I'm sorry, I've never heard of neodymium.
    14. Vintagefran Vintagefran, 10 years ago
      I'd only heard of it myself about a month ago, discovered purely by accident when i noticed my purple gems turned blue under certain light bulbs .
      Here's a couple of examples i have:)

      Very interesting. Maybe AR will check it, I never thought to.
    16. Vintagefran Vintagefran, 10 years ago
      I never thought to with the vase even after discovering the 'gems', it didn't even occur to me. Needless to say it was a pleasant surprise:) i like gimmicky glass:)
      I trust your keeping well friend

      That sure is close VF. I like the rounded tear drop shape of the bottom of it.
