Victorian 1890's Malachite / Slag Glass Stork or Heron Vase

Description

A wonderful Victorian era spill vase in purple & white marbled malachite glass, also known as slag glass, with a stork or heron bird design. Manufacturer unknown, no makers marks. From the style of malachite I suspect the maker is French, possibly Sars-Poteries.

Size

Measures approx 3.25 inches tall by 2.25 inches in diameter at widest point.

Condition

Excellent condition, no chips or cracks other than a tiny nick to the base rim, shown in 8th picture. Also has a few faint lines around the base rim that look like cracks, but glass like this often has such lines formed during the manufacturing process, and it is not considered damage, see 8th & 9th picture.
