“Ethereal Glass Sculpture/Candle Holder” Barbara Thompson ~ 3 1/3 x 11 1/2″, Glass $15 Although Barbara Thompson doesn’t name her pieces, it’s easy to see why I gave this one the name “Ethereal Glass Sculpture.” It’s also a statuesque candle holder on top.

Large Mauve, Blue & Brown Vase Joseph Sand Pottery I would call this a large vase by Joseph Sand. And it is perfectly shaped and the colors are pleasing, soft and blendy. A model of what a nice sized vase should be. Yet — this vase is less than 2′ tall, if you go to […]
