Mine is a heavy walled vase, basically oval in shape with a lip. He only had the one & I asked if it was the last. He thought it was more likely...

In the end, found the boots (Toe Warmers, BTW), bought many years ago, are now too tight to walk comfortably as much as my trip required, so wore...
I suspect hot needle tests.
That was catching my eye too. Finally decided the best description is smothered in glaze.
The first one he calls "molded coral" & the second one "pressed coral". Think he's correct that they are artificial, but you are correct, glass...
