    This piece measures 8" long, 4.75" wide, and 3.5" tall. The bottom of the feet are cut and polished. The estate it came from originated in Czechoslovakia before immigrating to America in the early 20th century. Any thoughts as to age, maker, or function is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Joe image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    What testing have you done for lead in the glass mix? I would not expect to see it in this.

    If this IS lead glass, then it is European, American glass manufacturers don't press lead glass. Yes, they did, once, before 1865, but this is mid 20th century or later.
