    What really interested me about this little vase is why all the effort to create such an unassuming piece. It's basically heavy brown speckled glass with a crackle finish. That's it, even the shape is simple. It's obviously hand made as it has a ground pontil. So is this a sleeper by a good company or just everyday Asian glass ? -Mike-

      It's a very nice mystery.

      Interesting we all end up with one that's for sure...lol. I don't think it's Czech even with the decor. The color is too blah. The base looks similar to some Kralik vases with this finish though, but I don't think it is. A perfect mystery piece. :)
