Vintage 1990's Pink Swirl Vase


*SOLD!* This gorgeous Haeger vase has that distinctive pink color and style from the late 80's and 90's (I call it Golden Girls pink!) and a beautiful swirl pattern. This vase is the real deal, with its original sticker on the bottom saying that it was made in 1996. It measures 7 1/2 inches tall and about 6 inches in diameter at the widest, with a 2 1/2 inch opening. It has 3 green felt pads on the bottom to protect your surfaces. This vase is in great vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage. It has two small imperfections which are original to the piece - there is one spot along the rim where the pink glaze missed a tiny spot, and there is one of the feet which is over too far and is slightly visible (luckily on the back side of the vase). Please look at the photos and video to see more information about the appearance, size, and condition of this item (I have tried to show its imperfections clearly, though they are very minor). What a wonderfully unique and well-preserved piece of 1990's interior design!

*SOLD* Pair of Vintage Brass Taper Candlestick Wall Sconces


 This pair of beautiful, heavy brass wall sconces have a great midcentury, almost gothic or Hollywood Regency vibe. They were made by Century and are solid brass. Each sconce has a hanger built into the back as well as the original sticker. They measure 10 inches high by 2.5 inches across, and stick out about 3.5 inches from the wall. Made in India. Each sconce holds one taper candle, with a deep candle cup to catch dripping wax (candles not included). These sconces are in great vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage. Some tarnish around rough spots at various places, but overall quite shiny, pretty gold color. These could always be polished if you wanted to make the finish perfect. This style of metal candleholder can loosen and get a bit wobbly, but it is easy to tighten down the screwing mechanism to get them tight again. Please look at photos and video to see more information about the appearance and condition of these items. What a cool and unique set of candle sconces!

Textured Blue Glass Bottle

It has no sticker or makers mark to show when or where it was made. The bottle is in great vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage. The glass is shiny and catches the light beautifully. Little to no signs of wear, scuffing, scratches, or color loss. This is a pre-loved, vintage item however.

Vintage Silver Y2K Puffy Heart Vase


*SOLD* This is such a cool vase! It is made of heavy metal, and looks like a Jeff Koons-inspired silver mylar balloon heart! The vase measures 7 1/2 inches high, 8 inches across, and about 4 inches deep. It has a slit-shaped opening. There is a black felt or fabric non-slip pad on the bottom, but unfortunately the sticker is missing. I believe this is from the turn of the 21st Century. This vase is in wonderful vintage/used condition, with no cracks, dents, or other damage. There is, however, a small amount of wear, including light scratches and imperfections in the extremely shiny surface. These are due to normal wear and use, since this is an old and used item. Please look at photos and video for condition. I polished up the surface a bit and it became extremely bright and shiny. What a unique and interesting vase!

White and Gold Honeycomb Pail or Lantern


*SOLD* This gorgeous and unique glass jar has the texture of honeycomb, with white frosted glass, a bright shiny silver interior, and silver detail outlining each honeycomb shape. It has a gold metal wire handle, so that it could be a hanging vase or candleholder, or a candle lantern. This jar measures just over 5 inches high and about 4 inches in diameter. It is in fantastic vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage. It has very little scuffing or signs of wear. I can only imagine that it would be very luminous with that super shiny interior if there was a candle or tiny string of lights inside. It would also make a beautiful hanging home for rooting your plant cuttings. The texture of each honeycomb is concave on the outside, and convex on the inside. So many potential uses for this beautiful jar!

Ornate Heygill Ceramic Bowl with Lid


*SOLD* This beautiful and unique handpainted ceramic bowl and lid were manufactured by Heygill and the design is called "Dynasty." The bottom of this container has a chinese stamp, a gold maker's sticker with the Heygill info, and another sticker that says this bowl is not for food use, decorative use only. It has a very interesting knob on the lid that I can't quite identify, it looks like maybe some type of flower or an animal?! The pot measures just over 4 inches high (about 6 1/4 inches high with the lid on) and about 6 inches in diameter. It is in good vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage. It does have some discoloration and marks around the foot and the lip of the bowl, some black specks in the glaze inside the bowl and on the white parts of the lid. It has a bit of a rustic finish - the hand painted details have a bit of texture to them that are uneven, as if different glaze colors were different thicknesses. It looks cool, though. This is definitely a visually interesting and unique covered bowl that could be useful in the bathroom or kitchen, or even as a planter!

Beautiful Brass Spittoon or Vase with Metal Cord Detail

 


*SOLD!* This beautiful brass vase, spittoon, or planter measures 8 1/2 inches tall and about 5 1/2 inches in diameter. It has an interesting irregular fluted edge and brass "cording" around the neck that ends in little brass ball tassels. The opening on this vase measures about 2 1/2 inches across, so it could hold a pretty substantial bouquet of flowers, or it would also look great with a vining houseplant or asparagus fern planted in it. This vase is in great vintage/used condition, with no cracks, dents, or other damage. See photos for condition. It has a bumpy "hammered" texture. I did not polish this vase, but it is already quite shiny, with the most patina on the inside of the fluted opening. It doesn't have any of those dark brass age spots. If you prefer brass to be lighter and brighter, you could polish it. What a unique and beautiful piece of vintage brass! You can purchase this brass vase now at www.ecoquirky.com
