Reader Writes - Question about Myers'

Greetings,
I'm hopeful that you can help me with some info on a Joel Philip Myers vase that I have. It's an abstract female-form in crystal with applied tangerine arms and breasts. The thick rim is crimped to give the appearance of a tall hair-do. All I know about it is that it's a Joel Myers design, and I saw one in crystal with green arms and breasts in a photo from the Blenko Museum. Do you know it's number, and if it is referred to by anything other than that number? Since I haven't been able to find much on this piece, I'm assuming it might be relatively uncommon. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike



Mike - I know this item


I own it in Ruby, Let me look for the photo and number
I'm thinking its a 7047 Joel Philip Myers but need to confirm.

in the mean time perhaps a collector will come on line


and answer these questions before I get back to you!


If NOT look for the answer some time next week - along with my Lady's photo.

  1. This one I always think of as the almost obscene Blenko.
    My husband would love to own her.

    is correct about the number, I paid $500 for one that is gold as you are describing.
    The seller told me it was very valuable. Mine is not signed.
