Thrift store score

This is an older find, but thought I'd try to get more info. It's lead crystal signed by polish artist Jablonski. Picked it up for 5 dollars. I do know he has stuff in museums. Thanks

Great score. Art glass is desired by many if you choose to sell it, which you should make a good profit I would think.

I love the stuff, it takes a lot of talent to create such things. As soon as I saw it I knew it was special.

Lots of it for sale.
Most pieces are under $100
Larger ones demand a higher price.

Wow, I kind of like it, the glassblower that did this was talented. I hope red coat can chime in. My wife gets on me for bringing this stuff home, but I appreciate good work and talent. It amazing what people just discard to a thrift store and don't appreciate the provenance or sentiment.

I couldn't display something like that in my home. It wouldn't last 5 minutes with my cats.

It is a curious piece.

It's a nice statement piece. I think @Joecoins is way off the mark and, although you can ask $1,000, you won't get it (assuming you want to sell). I think @pepperj has it about right. Here's a similar piece a little over 18 inches tall that had a pre-auction estimate of $100-200 in 2020 but sold for $80:

Thank you Red Coat, I'm not looking to sell it anyway I buy stuff I like, it was a bargain for 5 bucks. I was hoping it was a lottery ticket find, but I'm continent with letting it where it is. You guys are all awesome!!!!

I have cats too I understand. 😁

I simply saw the exact same and similar for sale currently at about 400$ in pounds. At auction people usually get much better prices.

Thanks J coins, I think so too. 🙂

I like beautiful art glass too. Beware the Chinese stuff though. It isn't worth a lot and they're rather unappealing.
