    This figurine is 4.75" x 3.75" long x 2" wide and weighs 1 lb 2 ounces. It is made of white opalescent and clear glass with a bit of orange glass. Bottom is ground and highly polished. It is very a high quality silly looking figurine. Not sure what the Y-shaped orange thing is supposed to be..... Maybe this is supposed to be a glow in the dark Three Mile Island squirrel eating a mutant carrot? The opalescent glass caught my eye. No label, no marks, no idea of maker or country of origin. Just for fun and because I like it..

      @Newfld - Thanks, Jenni!

      @Ms.CrystalShip - Thanks for your comments! They can strip my two hazelnut bushes in the blink of an eye. They are much better than I am at judging when they are ready to pick. All I get is the shells, most years. There is a town not far from where I live which is famous for its white/albino squirrels:

      Thanks Eileen! That's a funny story, if you don't have a bunch of walnut trees...... I feed birds and I've never found a way to stop the squirrels from getting into the bird seed. No matter which "squirrel proof" bird feeder I use, they eventually defeat it. So now, I feed the squirrels, too. They won.

      Such a beautiful squirrel Kevin, on second look it seems very Murano to me with the white body & colorful touches

      Thanks, Jenni. It will probably remain a mystery squirrel!
