<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 265548, member: 308"]It's difficult to generalize on a given Blenko decanter. The color makes a big difference as does the crackle finish. Unless you can find another amberina crackle 6029 that sold the price is going to be a guessing game. Amberina is not the most popular colors among Blenko collectors. Amberina crackle decanters seem to be selling lately in the $50 - $70 range on eBay. Amberina without crackle has been selling in the $35 - $112 range. Were it my decanter and I could afford it I would start your decanter at $99. The bonanza price is way out of whack. Wishful thinking on the part of a seller trying to cash in.</p><p><br /></p><p>To get the best price it must be pristine. Blenko is considered a "soft" glass and water etches very easily.
