Treasure Tuesday

Today's beautiful little treasure is hand painted Italian glass. This was a gift that my father brought home from Italy after being stationed there during WWII. As you can see there are no chips or cracks, only a few scratches. In pretty good shape to have been wrapped in a shirt and stuffed in a duffle bag and then thrown into a transport plane!!

Yes, it is amazing! Probably I wouldn't get that thing home from the store without incident.
Thanks for sharing such a gorgeous piece!
