    Hi,
    No luck in finding who made this one. Yellow and opalescent glass, glows green with the backlight. Stands 9" tall, crimped edge.
    Any information appreciated
    thanks for looking

    Oooo... I like it A LOT!

    It looks Victorian era to me, maybe English glass, Stourbridge area (but as usual, I could be way off base) and seems to have appropriate wear on the bottom.

    Can't wait for the glassies to chime in. I'm as curious as you are.

    Hi,
    I turn really really green when I see vaseline pieces like this. Green with envy.

    'if its green it isn't vaseline' is what you are thinking of - refers to the colour of the glass in natural light, vaseline glass is yellow:)

    Thanks bear:) yup, lots of factories that made the same type and style so it might remain unknown - nice piece of glass though.
