Super Rare Duncan Miller Glass 1940's Sanibel Shell Blue Opalescent Bookend Vase

Description

This measures 5" X 5-1/2" X 7-1/2" and is in excellent condition. Duncan & Miller Canterbury Gardenia Bowl with Great Rose Silver Overlay
This Canterbury pattern was introduced by the Duncan & Miller Glass Company in 1937. Most silver overlays were done by outside decorating firms. They are sometimes marked but this one is not.
The bowl is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks, but there are a few small spots where the silver is worn and a few knife or use marks. The spots that show as very black are the worn areas. Overall, the silver is in very good condition for an item of this age.
The bowl is about 11 3/4" wide and 3" tall.
I rarely describe vintage china & glassware as perfect since it will acquire some use marks even from sitting on a shelf for most of its life. Vintage china & glassware may also have small bubbles, mold seams and marks that are inherent in the making of the item. I try to describe any issues that I consider more than average wear and certainly will point out any damage.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions or would like additional pictures.
I have listings for other items. My eBay store is Glass Mountain Antiques.  Click on the above link to check out my other items. I am happy to reduce the shipping if you purchase more than one item and the items can be combined in one box. Ask for a revised invoice before paying when buying multiple items.
I pack everything with great care.  I use recycled material when I can, but mainly have to buy bubble wrap and peanuts. Your shipping cost is shown in the auction listing before you bid and is based on the shipping rates from my home to yours as computed by the eBay shipping calculator.  All of my items are unique. I weigh each item and then add one or two pounds for the estimated weight of the box and packing material. The shipping calculator is usually very close
to the actual amount of the shipping.
I inspect items carefully for any damage and try to describe the auction items clearly and accurately.  I will gladly refund your bid price if an item differs significantly from my description.  Items must be returned within 30 days of receipt to receive a refund.  Please contact me if you have any problems with my auction item.
