I have dealt with hundreds of pieces of opalescent and hobnail glass over the past 30 years and have never seen anything as unique as this green example. I believe it originated from the Bohemian region and was produced during the first quarter of the 20th century. Bulbous in shape, the top resembles that of a hyacinth vase. The green base color of the glass contrasts beautifully with the white opalescence especially visible in the hobnails and circling the top. On the bottom a rough pontil can be clearly viewed thus indicating mold blown production. The vase stands 4 3/4” tall with the broadest region of the body measuring 5 1/4” across. I can find no post factory damage or repairs to this vase, the inside is clean showing no residue from use. As mentioned and pictured, the bottom has roughness occurring in the making. This beautiful vase really displays well in any decor. I have provided a number of pictures for your viewing.
