\"Beaver<\/a>I know I am forever saying – “Isn’t this so beautiful” OR “Isn’t this the most beautiful” etc., etc. \u00a0But this REALLY IS so beautiful.<\/p>\n

I have long longed for this piece, ever since I saw a photo in The Collector’s \"Beaver<\/a>Encyclopedia of Fry Glassware. \u00a0I had never seen it ‘live’.<\/p>\n

I came across it on Etsy and thought – “Yahoo!” \u00a0I contacted the seller, who was in the process of moving and couldn’t find the cup. \u00a0Then he had thought it was lost. Then he found it, and now it is mine – yahoo again!<\/p>\n

I’ve seen this etch called Japanese maid, Japan Maid and Geisha. \u00a0It also comes etched on a teapot and a jug. \u00a0I’d love to put my hands on those too. \u00a0In the interim, this is a keeper! \u00a0Hopefully I can acquire \"Beaver<\/a>others.<\/p>\n

I’ve played with the image so that the etch can be more easily seen. \u00a0It is very delicate.<\/p>\n
