Pinwheel Pattern Lead Crystal Bud Vase

This is a small, trumpet-shaped bud vase crafted from high-quality clear lead crystal. The object features a traditional deeply cut 'pinwheel' or 'starburst' motif, characterized by multi-faceted geometric cuts that create a radiant, light-refracting effect across the body. The piece stands approximately 4 to 6 inches tall, with a flared rim and a slightly weighted, circular base for stability. Its construction demonstrates classic European glassmaking techniques, likely originating from a mid-to-late 20th-century production run, common to manufacturers like Waterford, Mikasa, or Bohemian glass houses in the Czech Republic. The crystal appears highly transparent with a bright, silvery brilliance typical of high lead content. Small vertical wedge cuts and fan details decorate the areas between the primary pinwheel patterns. As for the condition, the item appears to be in good vintage state with no visible chips, cracks, or deep scratches, though minor shelf wear on the base and faint internal water residue or calcification may be present upon closer inspection. There are no immediate visible maker's marks or acid-etched signatures in the provided photograph, but the craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced yet high-quality decorative giftware standard.
