Here's a vintage swung glass vase I acquired from a local estate. The glass is a pure purple, or amethyst, color that appears to be really hard to find. I haven't verified it but I believe it was made by L. Smith Glass Company of Pennsylvania.
The body is ribbed with a flat area on the ribs near the fat bottom. The pattern is called broken column I believe. This vase measures approximately 18 1/2 tall at the tallest. The base is 5 1/2" diameter with the "fattest" diameter being about 6 1/2".
The vase has no chips, nicks or cracks. There is no cloudiness to the glass. I didn't note any scratches or wear to the surface.I try to give any information I have about the listings, and to tell you whether the information is fact or opinion. My description will point out anything I find that could possibly be considered a flaw. For this reason, many past buyers felt that they received a better product than they expected.
I use padded envelopes, peanuts, bubble wrap, and Styrofoam packaging as necessary to ensure safe arrival. If you live on the west coast please allow that transit time and costs will be more than average from Florida. FEEDBACK: I leave feedback weekly for customers with cleared payments.
