Birds, Vase

News Flash – a knowledgeable Elegant and Everyday Glass Forum participant gave me the following information – “Its a well known Czech vase often found with a fake R. Lalique signature. Its called the Doves vase & comes in two styles, the one you have & one thats similar to the small Tiffin Poppy vase.”

I’ve been looking for more information, so far to no avail.  It’s great that I didn’t pay a great deal of money for this.  It’s pretty and I will still enjoy using it.  Wouldn’t it have been fab to have found a Lalique though????

Yesterday morning I was looking at a photo of the most beautiful covered jar called Hummingbird with Roses by Consolidated Lamp & Glass

Company.  Later in the day we went out to Orono as the shops were holding an Antique and Art festival.  Too bad it rained!  Nonetheless we wandered about and I came across this beautiful vase in the style of the jar.

The price tag was marked Tiffin and there were no markings on the vase.  I bought it knowing that it was an “unknown” as it is very beautiful and different.

I have posted it on the Elegant and Everyday Glass Forum and asked for “Help!”  A responder said that it is not Consolidated, Phoenix or Gillinder.  He thinks it may be European.  I will continue to look as it is very interesting.  But as always…if anyone knows, please share.

Grapes, Harvest, Leaves, Vase

We went out to the Courtice Flea Market today.  Turns out that the Farmers’ market only runs on Sunday.  But  I bought this vase (for fifty cents) and four cups and saucers for $6.00.  Gotta love that.

I ran a quick search on this vase.  Most of the hits report it as an Anchor Hocking piece.  I saw one that attributed it to Imperial Glass.   I am tending to believe that it was produced by A-H.

One ebay listing called it a celery vase.  I guess celery could stand in it.  I’m thinking I will likely use it for flowers – likely yellow.

Vase

This is a common little vase/floral container that you can find all over the place.  I don’t know anything about its provenance.  You have to put a flower frog in it to keep a low arrangement upright.

I used to have such a flower frog, but it seems to have gone awol on me.  The frog, and this little piece were given to me by my mother-in-law, years ago.  She’s gone now and I keep this as a keepsake.  Of course I have my three wonderful kids as keepsakes, but this is pretty too!

I should buy a frog and use it again.
