[QUOTE="wlwhittier, post: 9747840, member: 76316"]6" tall, ~2 1/2" square, 2 7/8" rim; weight ~7 5/8 oz. It shows a 'muddy' pontil; the rim is ground an' chamfered inside & out. The iridescence is much muted in these pics, but reminiscent of some Loetz or Tiffany art glass from the turn of the 20th C. I have no clue whether it's contemporary, or has good age. UV turns it near black, with some remnant translucence...the iridescence cannot be seen there. I'm in sincere hope that it's old, an' [I]real[/I] good...but the realist in me is urging muted expectations. Thanks for lookin'!
