I had seen this one online in milk glass with no identification. It was too expensive for me to consider, but I of course wanted it.

Came across one in clear in an online auction from the US.  The first time I actually bought anything through Live Auctioneer.  It was a simple process although the end price with the shipping and exchange of course made this piece more costly than I would have liked.  But I have it.

I still don’t know anything about it.  I messaged someone who has one for sale online, but didn’t receive a response.

It is a very majestic piece and I would love to identify it.

I have gone on a bit of a buying spree recently and have added three ‘lions’ to my collection.  This one arrived first and did not disappoint!

I had seen this piece just once or twice online and then finally decided that I had to have him at a reasonable price from an ebay seller.

A seller on Etsy confirmed that this was a piece of Viking Glass.  She was selling the same piece, with the label, and was the original purchaser. She guessed she had purchased it in the ’70s or ’80s.

This is a heavy piece weighing in at 3 pounds.

I just love the pose – so relaxed!
