Antique Early 20th Century Goofus Glass \"Gaudy Grape\" Relief Vase
Manufactured during the early 1900s (circa 1900–1920s) by prominent makers of the era like Northwood or Indiana Glass, this piece was originally distributed as a premium CARNIVAL PRIZE or theater giveaway. How neat is that and the fact it has survived ALL THESE YEARS!!!
- Authentic Construction: Features the distinct, unpolished mechanical \"plunger circle\" on the bottom base, confirming its early 20th-century pressed-glass heritage.
- Cold-Painted Finish: Decorated in classic metallic tones, highlighting the deep texture of the fruit and foliage.
- Base Glass: Thick, heavy, clear flint glass underneath the painted elements.
This vase is in good antique condition with honest, authentic age-appropriate wear. As is typical and expected with genuine unfired Goofus Glass, there is natural flaking, chipping, and fading to the cold-painted gold and ruby highlights, giving it a wonderful aged patina. There are no major chips, cracks, or structural flea bites to the underlying glass itself.
Please review the photos carefully to assess the exact condition.
Thank you for looking and God Bless.
