black amber orange old ? glass vase id

hey folks, this was another item i picked up yesterday

anyone have an idea of age/origin

looks black, orangey amber in light

any thoughts appreciated

 

It's moulded. I suspect it's a container rather than a vase.

 

thanks obb, that makes sense as the lip look like a bottle lip

 

Maybe for oil or vinegar, or some such??? Pretty color!!

 

Check out Wheaton Glass as a possibility.
A vase, not a bottle.

 

thanks, yeah the colour makes me think of cola !

ill look into Wheaton glass

what sort of age do you think

not sure if molded is a good or bad thing

 

1970s or later

 

thanks for the info cc

 

I'm sorry, Charlie, but I don't think it has much value. These types of bud vases were produced in large numbers during the 1970's and 1980's, probably as part of a vase line for florists. Usually you see milk glass but green and amber are also common.

No worries at all don, thanks for the info.

i dont see it as a failure, just a learning curve !

 

Oh, for sure! I hope I didn't disrespect your vase. It wasn't my intention. It's still a very useful item. I wish I could remember to cut more of my flowers to use in the bud vases I have.
