Green Cut Glass Spherical Vase


*SOLD* This beautiful sphere vase has a swirl pattern cut into the glass. It is a luminous green glass. Unfortunately, it has a chip on the edge that happened in transport to my house - I'm really sad about it, but I have lowered the price because of this imperfection. Otherwise, this vase is in great vintage/used condition, only a slight amount of scuffing and normal wear. Please look carefully at the photos and video to see the damaged spot - it is a small chip that isn't very noticeable, but you need to be okay with it before buying this item! This vase is 4 3/4 inches tall and about 5 1/2 inches in diameter at its widest. The opening is about 3 1/4 inches across. This vase has an elegant shape, and the green glass looks beautiful when light shines through it! Purchase this spherical vase now at www.ecoquirky.com



 

Carved Wood Pedestal Fruit Serving Bowl


*SOLD* This gorgeous vintage bowl has a beautiful shiny finish and is carved into a flower shape with a foot. This bowl has part of a sticker on it that I believe says Made in Philippines, but it also has been hand-carved on the bottom with Waikiki 1969, so I think maybe this bowl was sold as a souvenir in Hawaii in the 1960's?! It has a beautiful shape and amazing carved details. This bowl measures 5 inches tall, and about 7 1/2 inches in diameter, and is a lovely way to display fruit. This item is in great used/vintage condition, with no cracking or big chips or other damage to the wood. There is a small amount of scratches/scuffing, barely any considering the age of this item! There are also some imperfections in the carving of the wood that are original. The owl is very well sealed except the very bottom of the foot is raw. The foot is sturdy. An absolutely beautiful antique bowl! Purchase this pedestal fruit bowl now at www.ecoquirky.com



 

Sleek Midcentury Wooden Box


*SOLD* This gorgeous box looks as if it was handmade, though there is no makers mark or signature on it. It has a beautiful midcentury modern silhouette with a beautiful lid. The box is a rectangle, roughly 8 x 6 1/2 inches and about 4 inches tall. The box is made of an unfinished soft wood, and because the wood is so soft, there are a few dings here and there. Please look at the last couple of photos to see these dings. Otherwise, there is no other damage to the box. It is structurally solid. The nicks could probably be sanded out, and the wood could probably be stained and sealed, although it is beautiful the way it is. The feet are beautifully carved. The lid's rectangular knob is held on with a screw. Whoever made this box put a lot of love and good taste into it! This box would be great for jewelry or odds and ends.

The mechanism to open and close the umbrella is wood, and works great. It does latch to stay open. This item is in great vintage/used condition, with no damage to the wood frame or to the lace. There is a very small amount of wear in the form of very light scuffing on the top tip, but overall fabulous condition. A very cute mini umbrella!

Terra Cotta Countertop Pasta Container

But it would also work great to store all of your kitchen utensils like spatulas, whisks, wooden spoons, ladles, and other oversized items. This container is heavy and good quality, manufactured by Casa Verde, and has a green painted lip that probably lends some extra protection to that ceramic lip.

This dish is in great vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage. It seems like it may have a small amount of yellowing due to age, but it is hard to tell because the surface is so shiny, and it depends on the light. Please see photos for condition.

Painted Strawberries Ceramic Bell


This lovely little bell is made of raw unglazed, eggshell-textured ceramic that has been hand-painted and signed by the artist. The painting features strawberries and strawberry blossoms surrounded by green leaves and vines. There are two decorative beads at the top of the bell, and the ringer is a wide ceramic triangle that matches the bell material. The bell measures about 5 inches from top to bottom.

It is in great vintage/used condition, with no chips or cracks. There are a couple of small scuff marks on the bell, as well as a couple of very small nicks that I believe are original to the manufacturing when the clay was soft. Overall, this bell is in wonderful condition, clean and pretty! It has a white nylon braided string to hang it by. Please look at photos for condition. What a beautiful bell! This one is hard to let go of!

It is 5 inches tall with an opening that is just under 2 inches wide. I'm not sure what material this vase is made of, it feels like a lightweight ceramic or possibly resin. If you look at the photo of the back, you can see what look like paintbrush strokes. This item is in great vintage/used condition, with a few small scuffs and scratches here and there, but no chips, cracks, or other damage. Please see photos for condition.
