<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 9426142, member: 7360"]This is a beautiful hand blown glass carafe which has two lips or spouts and four ribs, presumably to make it easier to pass around and pour. I think it is beautifully made, with very clear glass in a kind of blue-green colour which I see as peacock blue or maybe sea green. (Difficult to capture with my digital camera). It has a very neatly-ground pontil on the base, and I feel it is from a high quality manufacturer. It is about 19cms, 7.5 inches high. Blenko seems a likely candidate, with a line of squarish, flat-sided water carafes designed to fit into fridge doors, including this colour, but I can't find this particular rounded, ribbed style. Do you think this one is Blenko, or can anyone suggest another manufacturer?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]434092[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]434093[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]434094[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]434095[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]434096[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]434097[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
