The Diamond Glass Company very big in the 1920's this would be a vase of theirs, pattern is Optic, the color is a rich Marigold. It has a base of 2 1/2" and the bell is 3 1/2" , it stands just under 9" tall. Pretty color, very good fire, no damage, it just needs a new home. I am selling part of a collection for a family member. This is glass that has been formed by being pressed into a mold while in a hot molten form. As it cools, it takes on the shape and detail of the mold. Once removed from the mold, and while still relatively hot, it is sprayed with metallic salts in liquid form which gives it the "oil-on-water" multicolor appearance.
