Lovely Lilac/Lavender/Purple HOBNAIL 5 1/2" Tall (w/o flowers) VASE w/17 Hand Made Flowers in order Purple, Green & Gold

❘❘❙❙❚❚ ON SALE ❚❚❙❙❘❘

I found this vase recently at an estate sale, and have no idea whether it is massively vintage or was made made in the 1980's, though was told by the individuals at the sale that it was from the 1970's or 1980's.

I did, however, know one thing: the slender-necked, purple HOBNAIL vase was extraordinarily pretty and would be a grand vehicle for my hand made flowers.

She stands 5 1/2" tall without flowers. With them, she rises to a height of just a tad over 7."

She has 17 or more HAND MADE flowers in her (I cannot get a complete count unless I take her apart, as, often, one flower seats above another).

The flowers are all done in greens, shades of purple and gold to work with the vase, which is filled with green glitter styrofoam balls. The way they look against the translucent purple glass is fantastic!

I have attempted to show all different views: front, side, back, top of this marvelous, unique and most certainly ONE OF A KIND belle. The final photo show the "view from the top."

NO TWO FLOWERS ARE THE SAME, and all were painstakingly hand made and hand order placed for greatest effect.

The luscious flowers and leaves showcase vintage and new, faceted, SWAROVSKI crystals in green and purple, genuine PURPLE freshwater PEARLS, GENUINE FACETED AND UNFACETED AMETHYST, vintage CZECH hand painted purple and gold rounds, painted enamel, acrylics, vintage Japanese sugar beads, vintage etched and embossed gold leaves, gold plate and brass filigree bead caps, mesh enamel painted flowers, shamballa beads, green leaf stick pins, purple teardrop stick pins, vintage 1930's Czech green and gold scalloped beads, shamballa balls, and faceted DIAMENTE stick pins.

The piece glistens madly and picks up the light with abandon.

ONE OF A KIND and an absolute delight, this charming, unique and enchanting lassie would look good anywhere you wished to put it and would make a terrific gift!

NOTE: IF you are interested, I can make these flowers into bridal or bridal party bouquets, corsages, place settings, etc. Just convo me!

AS A NOTE ON SHIPPING COST: These vintage glass pieces are not lightweight, ergo they cost more to ship. When you add the large group of flowers to them, they weigh more, and this is why the shipping is high. HOWEVER......ANY SHIPPING OVERAGE WILL BE PROMPTLY REFUNDED.
