It has a Ruffled Top & Very Subtle Pastel Iridescence ***Glows Beautifully Under Blacklight!!!*** NEW INFORMATION:In 1981, 1982, 1983, and 1993, the International Carnival Glass Association used the Frolicking Bears pattern for their Convention souvenirs. The original shape was like a tumbler though a bit larger, perhaps a spooner. These were made into spittoons ,and other shapes.. such as JIP vases.. were whimsied as well. These whimsies were offered during a Special Auction following the convention banquet. Hence the very low number available. The bears are having all the fun in this wonderful piece, as they dance around in the mountains!The scene depicts Dancing Bears, Mountains in the background and Leaves & Berries at the bottom & a Lake. The scene plays out the whole way around this Whimsical Vase!Pieces like this don't come around too often! *On the bottom of the vase is the ICGA symbol along with the Date & City it took place in.*It measures 4" Tall x 4 1/2" Wide *So darn adorable!!
