    Icon5 Looking for info on my blue vase

    Hello!

    I found your group doing a Google search on glass experts, and I'm hoping you wonderful folks might have the combined expertise to help me find out more about a vase of mine.

    The mark on the bottom looks like a JB in a box. Or an OB or DB...I can't really tell. I have attached and linked below to photos of the bottom of the vase, as well as a side image. Any idea what I'm looking at here?

    Thank you!

    Hmmm, this looks like a cobalt blue vase to me, for sure!

    You may want to do a search on forums for depression glass, or glass bottle collectors (http://www.nationalbottlemuseum.org/), this is all contemporary, hand-made glass here on this forum...

    I would see what Antiques Roadshow has to say about it.
    The most helpful bit of advice I've ever received:

    I am a bottle collector. This is contemporary glass made recently. What do you want to know about it?

    It looks just like a bottle of wine I have, the mark on the bottom is different though. Sorry about the crappy pics...
