Antique, v.attractive, pulled-feather design, ruby & white art glass whimsy pipe

Description

On offer is this
really attractive,
gorgeous piece of antique/vintage hand-blown art glass in the form of a pipe
and featuring a
white-
striped
"pulled-feather" design against a
ruby red/cranberry background
.  As you can see for yourself, the design is quite mesmerizing!! This wonderful piece measures about 13" from tip, to more or less, the bottom of the base or bowl, of the pipe. (please see pic 4 for a size comparison, with a
regular can of Coke
. Not quite certain of the date, but possibly late 19th Century or early 20th Century.
PLEASE NOTE
:
It comes with a
plexi-glass display stand
(see pic 4).....which unfortunately is fairly heavy and bulky....so it tends to increase the cost of postage. If you do
not want
the stand please let me know and I can ship the piece without stand, which will lower the postage cost!
Just a terrific piece of antique art glass, fit to decorate any room as an ornamental piece or alongside other glass in a display cabinet!
