Originally purchased by seller's great grandparents—year unknown but believed to be 1890s. Both ggparents and grandparents were deceased before seller was born in 1946=no stories. Ten years ago seller secured the three pieces with museum wax and anticipates it will be difficult to release the grip of the wax given the substantial lengthy breaks(shown in several photos) . IF you are successful you would have three handfuls of Moser glass. Ruffled rim-- missing a chunk where the piece must have suffered a crash. Chips Damaged and absent florals and vine appointmentsNOTE: any ''fuchsia'' color you see along the seam lines is artist pastel where seller first tried to highlight the crack lines. Later, seller washed color our of photos of the two crack lines to the base. The artist pastel has been rinsed away. The wax museum joinery of the visible ''seams'' are imperfect —seller's attempts are not perfect. Chipping along the joints.
