    I found a very odd piece of art glass that I'm hoping to get an ID on if possible. Google images wasn't any help. The bottom is a 6 point star. Each point is a rib on the back of each finger. The fingers vary in height with the tallest being 9 7/8" high x about 9: across at widest point. Viking.png Viking2.png

    Hm. Those star bases are often Japanese.

    Yes there is. Stunning art glass. This appears to be Venetian glass. JI Co.[​IMG]

    It's under rated and only just being recognised. A fair bit of "Murano" is Japanese!
