Description
CollectionThis is an outstanding example of a two handled amphora vase manufactured and signed by H. P. Sinclaire. I looked in both book volumes by E. S. Farrar and the latest ACGA re-print catalog for pattern I.d., but do not see an obvious match. Many of the pictures are very dark and hard to discern, so it could be there... Height is a true 12". Body tapers from ~ 4 1/2", at the bottom, to ~ 6" at the top. The original, scalloped, flora-form rim is ~ 6" diameter and handles are perfectly annealed at attachment points. This vase is of the highest quality; glass is crystal clear with excellent polishing and light refractive properties. Other than shelf wear; this piece appears to be in factory original condition. Weight is ~ 7 lb, 3 oz. This vase displays exceptional well. Much nicer than my amateur photography shows ! If you have any questions or need additional pictures; please ask and I'll try to take and/ or answer if I can.
Side note: this would be an excellent advance piece for any collection; absolutely no disappointment !! Vase is much better than my photography shows and is much more substantial than my photography shows.

I have been collecting cut glass for almost thirty years and most of the cut glass, I am selling, is from my personal collection. A few pieces will be items I purchased to re-sell to help defer cost of the collecting. I indicate, where its coming from, as either re-sale or collection. Quality of items will range from above average to outstanding. Most items will be American brilliant with some brilliant period European color as well. I will give as much "known" detail about an item as I can. This will include maker, pattern, quality, any defects and/ or damage. I am a discriminating collector and only purchased items of the highest quality and condition.
Shipping Policy: shipping cut glass can be a little expensive due to it's weight and the need for double boxing. I will not compromise safely shipping an item to save a couple dollars. Some items will require direct signature receipt and insurance. I want your item to arrive in the same condition as it left. I realize my default shipping method selection of "USPS Parcel Select" may appear expensive, but I must pick something. Once you purchase; I will pack your item then ship using the most cost effective and reasonable service available. Typically and except for possibly Priority Mail; FedEx is cheaper for longer distances than USPS and vice-versa. Regardless; any over-payment is always refunded. The best option is to request an estimate before purchase or wait for an invoice from me, not Ebay, after purchase; that way you will know the true cost.
Finally, I will describe items with as much detail and accuracy as possible, but there is a small chance I may miss something minor. These items are 90+ years old and are being sold as is and not returnable. This is not a reflection on the condition or quality of any of the items for sale. My feedback is a testament to my customer service, quality of merchandise and honesty. Thanks for looking.
