Green Glass Appraisal

Pair of Green Glass Vases/Bowls

This lot features two distinct pieces of green glass, likely intended for decorative purposes such as vases or bowls. Both items are crafted from a vibrant, transparent emerald green glass. The first item, on the left, is a slender vase, approximately 6-8 inches tall, with a flared, ruffled rim atop a narrow neck. Its body gradually widens and features vertical ribs or facets, culminating in a scalloped or fluted base. The exact construction method is unclear without closer inspection, but it appears to be molded glass. The second item, on the right, is a fan-shaped or 'cornucopia' style bowl or vase, resting on a pedestal base. It measures roughly 8-10 inches in width at its widest point and 6-8 inches in height. The top rim is distinctly ruffled or crimped, and the body of the fan features a textured, possibly diamond-patterned or waffle-weave pattern, suggesting pressed glass manufacture. This piece also exhibits strong vertical ribbing around the rim section. Both items display a relatively clean appearance with good translucency, indicative of being in at least good condition, though minor surface wear or manufacturing imperfections (such as mold lines or small bubbles) cannot be ruled out without closer examination. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant damage in the provided images. The style of the green glass, particularly the ruffled edges and patterned surfaces, suggests a mid-20th century (e.g., 1950s-1970s) aesthetic, often associated with decorative glass from companies like Fenton, Fostoria, or similar manufacturers, though no specific maker's marks are discernible. The craftsmanship appears to be consistent with mass-produced decorative glass of that era.
