THE HOLIDAYS ARE COMING! THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT GIFT. I OFFER GIFT WRAP (let me know the occasion) FOR $7.50 AND CAN SHIP TO 3RD PARTY ADDRESS(es) WITH PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS AND AFTER PAYMENT. ****** WONDERFUL, OLD, VINTAGE, RARE, DARK AMETHYST COLOR CRACKLE GLASS VASE. PROBABLY HAMON (BUT WITH NO LABEL)(possibly Rainbow Glass Company). Late 1940's TO 1970's. Several things make this piece valuable: 1) The dark amethyst color, rare during the era of this fine piece of crackle glass; 2) the vintage age of the piece; the Excellent Condition of the piece, and 4) the uniqueness of this piece - when feeling this piece with one's hands, the outer surface feels subtly ribbed, and the crackle seems to follow the ribbing. In the Sun, this piece Bursts Forth with Great Sparkle. Facts: Condition: Used, Old, Rare. Excellent Condition. No chips, scratches, repairs, or the like that I am aware of. This is a very unusual piece because this size of Hamon vase in this Excellent Condition and in this Vivid Dark Amethyst is very rare. It has a recessed pontil that is smoothed, typically like Hamon (and perhaps Rainbow Glass Company). Height = 7.25 inches; Width (at widest part of the vase) = 3.25 inches; Width (at widest part of flare at top of vase) = 2.75 inches.
