PLEASE NOTE

Glass from the mid-20th century is vintage glassware and age related signs of wear such as small fine surface scratches/marks should be expected. The items are hand-made, they may have imperfections such as bubbles, inclusions and lumps within the glass. Tool marks from where they have been shaped and worked in the manufacturing process can often be seen. As this indicates authenticity and forms an inherent part of the character of handmade crystal glass, these are normally not considered as faults by collectors.

* The images provided form part of the description.

* This magnificent item is an original and rare, hand-made, signed German studio glass item (and not Italian Murano, Daum, Kosta Boda, Orrefors, Flygsfors, Swarovski, Leerdam, Val St Lambert, Whitefriars or Lalique studio glass).

* I personally sourced this beauty from Germany for my own, private collection many moons ago. Regrettably, with retirement on the horizon, I am now compelled to make space.
