I like the flasks...the lamp in the background also caught my eye..is it marble? or painted to look like marble

Chris, The two chestnuts are 6 1/2" and 8 1/4" tall.


Eric, That lamp is Alabaster.

Greg,

I moved this back to this thread...

You obviously know your glass, but I wonder if the lip on the small chestnut is actually an applied rather than rolled lip? All of the New England chestnuts that I have are applied lips, although some of them look rolled. Look inside the lip... do you see any crazing? Here are a couple of lips that I just took a picture of. They are applied lips, but it is difficult to tell until careful inspection.
