Hobnail Milk Glass Vase

The item is a tall, white milk glass vase characterized by its distinctive hobnail pattern. The vase features a flared, slightly ruffled rim at the top, which transitions into a slender, cylindrical neck and body. The neck and upper body of the vase display a more subtle, elongated hobnail or ribbed texture. As the form descends, it widens to a bulbous, spherical base that is heavily adorned with pronounced, spherical hobnails. These raised glass dots cover the entire surface of the base, providing both visual interest and tactile texture. The craftsmanship appears to be mold-blown, typical for milk glass items of this style. The color is opaque white, consistent with traditional milk glass. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant damage, suggesting good overall condition. No maker's marks or signatures are discernable from the provided images. Given the hobnail pattern, this vase likely dates from the mid-20th century, a popular period for milk glass production. Its classic design and uniform color indicate it could serve as a decorative piece for various interior styles, from vintage to contemporary. The quality is good, with a smooth finish on the glass where not textured by the hobnail pattern.
