This 10-inch high vase, dating from 1927, is made of opalescent glass. It was estimated to bring in at least $25,000 at auction. The vase below may be a distraction for some. Sony CyberShot, cha-cha, PS. I greyscaled the red chip before combining; that seemed to result in a less rivalrous view, and helped recreate the opalescent effect.
