I cant seem to find a flower sculpture online that is like this one. I've searched using plastic, resin, lucite & acrylic with no results. Tho I do not believe it is acrylic except maybe the rods in the center of each flower. I would guess it to be somewhat old (70's or prior) & something some people would call "Eames era" but I guess it could be more modern. Maybe PVC but I doubt that. Its about 17" tall x 17" wide. Anyone know anything about it.

The brass or bronze medallion has not been identified, its rather large at 3.5" x 3.5" & seems to have a German WWII looking generals pip in the center. Anyone here know anything about it?

This lot of 11 goblets (10 of which are uranium glass). The clear one is called Parrot AKA Owl in Fan, it's 1880's. Maker is Richard's & Heartley & they sell for $45ish on eBay. One of the vaseline glass pieces (the small mug in the front) is from the 1893 worlds fair & I have a $150 standing offer for it. The one on the far left is Bellaire paneled jewel or Paneled Rosettes 1885-1888 & pretty darn rare in vaseline glass. The one on the far right is some really strange slag like glass in a tannish grey color with some black streaks in the stem & foot. It has a pontil mark on the bottom & reacts to blacklight thus contains uranium. I paid $25 for the group of 11 goblets & there is probably a minimum of $500 worth of goblets there.

Nice finds. I would describe the flower as a Jack in the Pulpit. I agree 70's ish.

691. Jack-in -the Pulpit Flower Sculpture. Unsigned : Lot 691

Wish I could find more uranium glass.

The medallion no idea.

There is no lack of uranium glass around here. Most of it isn't the best of the best stuff but there is usually plenty of Green Depression at local auctions & also plenty of pre WWII Jadeite can be found. A lot of odds & ends vaseline pieces too but mostly post 1958 stuff with a little victorian & slightly newer vaseline pieces sprinkled in.
