I recently purchased this lovely piece of cobalt blue glass with silver overlay on a trip to North Carolina. There was a tiny round sticker on the bottom that said “West Germany” – not sure if anything else was on the sticker, because when I got the piece home and unwrapped it, the sticker was gone. *sigh*

The overlay at the top looks like a stylized eagle head surrounded by five circles, and the intricate overlay around the body of the vase has crosses in the design, so I’m wondering if perhaps this is a candle holder for a church instead of a vase. I love a good mystery, but I also like them to be solved! :)

If anybody out there has any information on the manufacturer or country of origin, please leave a comment! Even if you know of a similar piece, let me know so I can research further. Thanks in advance for any information you could provide.

Peace,
