[QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 161479, member: 136"]Johnny, a few days ago you posted a piece of red Schott-Zwiesel glass in the [I]Finds[/I] thread. I've gone back to it a couple of times, because I think it's so pretty. Did you ever find out anything more about it? When I saw it, I thought [I]carafe [/I](as opposed to [I]vase[/I]) but the thickness of the glass at the top made me wonder... I have a Polish glass carafe (obviously not the same as your Schott-Zwiesel) but the top is much thinner glass. Yours, then mine: [ATTACH=full]44071[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]44072[/ATTACH] Mine is only 10" tall, but it weighs a lot, too. It also has a matching drinking glass that inverts over the top, for use as a bedside carafe, perhaps. I only found one vaguely similar Schott-Zwiesel item, a different shape, listed as a vase: [ATTACH=full]44073[/ATTACH] from: [URL]http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZWIESEL-MODERNIST-VASE-RED-GLASS-WITH-LABEL-/391474389562?hash=item5b25b1223a%3Ag%3A-9oAAOSwcdBWRaFX&nma=true&si=G0TtTPDlAuOPz3fCnRd7%252BmQiFIw%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557[/URL] I honestly can't tell if the glass at the top is as thick as that on your item. Anyway, I love your colored glass collection! I have several bits & pieces of it, myself, but (sadly) I have way too many things to display everything! -C-[/QUOTE]
