I didn't know that. No wonder they made a special vase for them The modern ones I have grown are nothing like. Riley is the small one in my avatar.
I know you showed us these before. I didn't want to say this, but I am sure these are painted plaster. You can see the white under the chipped...
I agree it was a trick of the light. It was an hour's fight to set up this simple light box. Riley insisted in sitting in it, on it, and on top...

I didn't know this was Uranium glass (Thank you TallCakes) in the store, but I bought it because it has a great deal of natural wear on the...
Boy. That's so interesting. I can see now that you mention it, the crimping is very regular for a hand made piece. Great you saw this talk...
