Gemel? Can anyone help?

[grdigger35]

Can anyone help with this one? I know it's called a gemel, but that's all I know. What's it worth?

This is the bottom. Very crude pontil scar.

I know a gemel is for holding oil and vinegar. Yours is neat, very crude, but I think a little too crude to be antique. It's very crooked and thick. They had pretty high standards for this type of thing, since it would be seen every day. So my guess would be it's relatively new art glass.

KENTOHIO, Thanks for your info. Do you think this could be made by Blenko? They're about the only ones still doing this.

It could very well be Blenko. I'm no expert on them though. Plus, there's always the possibility that it was done by a college student somewhere.
