<p>[QUOTE="aaroncab, post: 213195, member: 3974"]Hello again <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> I picked this up at an auction a few years back and it's sat on my shelf looking pretty ever since, but I know nothing about it. It's marked "Czecho-slovakia" on the metal plate - and there is a mark on the back of the statuette/finial on the lid. It's about 12" high with the lid on it. Base is about 7" in diameter. No mark on the bottom Seems to be hand painted glass all around. Missing 2 of the cordial glasses and the small decanter is chipped on the mouth. The hinge weld has come apart so the lid lifts right off. Is this worth repairing in order to resell? I'm tempted just to let it keep looking pretty in my living room - but I'd like to know more about it.</p><p><br /></p><p>~</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]62592[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]62593[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]62594[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]62595[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]62596[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]62597[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]62598[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]62601[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]62602[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
