I picked up this cool glass swan a few years back along with another similar piece that looks like a leaf. Both were made by the same person from looking at the way they were made. Anybody know anything about these pieces? They do not have any markings on them anywhere.

It looks a bit like the glass swans made by the Old Hickory Glass Company (a.k.a. Central Glass) of Spiro, Oklahoma, founded by E. F. Underwood in 1959. The company now has a factory in Pocola, Oklahoma.

Thanks PBK, I would say they are the same as the ones made by Old Hickory. Great detective work!!

Well, maybe the fact that for many years I lived less than 25 miles from Spiro gave me just a little edge. ;)
 

Beautiful swans. They would look beautiful on a mantle
 

Here are the two pieces......

This one appears to be a leaf?

And this is the other one that looks like a swan, altho not as much as the first one.
