This is a beautiful color, sort of a rose and purple combined, but definitely has a very soft purple hue. It has a translucency, but the color is even throughout the bottle. The color is great, shape very nice, and very clean. Downsizing with retirement, so reluctantly letting this beauty go.
The little water bottle measures a little over 6.25 inches height and about 4.5 inches in width, 2 inches in depth. This makes a perfect bud vase and would look lovely on a buffet or area where you are serving your Easter meal and want a decorative touch without a large, bulky arrangement. The color is gorgeous with nearly every other Blenko Glass shade and would be terrific in a small grouping.
It has a 16 oz capacity and looks great on a windowsill, ledge, bookshelf, or where you serve your food just out by itself. This has all the identifications for authenticity: the foil Blenko hand stickers, "mini series" sandblasted on the bottom, along with "Blenko 2013 and the hand" on the underside. I have seen some of these with a bunch of ripples or texture and some with very smooth glass. This has the smooth glass and is a 1st quality piece ordered straight from Blenko. Looks new, but is 11 years old.
