Several months ago I discovered a new to me antiques mall in High Point called Twin Deer. I decided to go and check it out and spent several hours walking around looking at all of the booths and fun treasures they had. Any time I go to an antiques mall, I have to do one complete walk around the entire store before I decide to purchase anything. I do that because I never know what's going to be around the corner that may be something I want more than what I saw before. Plus, if what I want is still there when I return the 2nd time, then it's meant to be.
On my first trip out there, and I have been several times since, I did find a few treasures including this cracked egg vase. I had one once and got rid of it during a downsizing phase. And when I saw this one, I had to have it. It looked almost exactly like the one I used to have. I always regretted getting rid of mine but that was life at the time. It had belonged to Aunt Billie and sat on a display shelf in her living room. I always thought it an interesting piece and I am glad to have replaced it.
Now, I have never used it as a vase and I have never seen one used as a vase LOL It would interesting to put a small arrangement in there, but considering the dimensions of the vase, it would need to be a bouquet of short stems that's rather full. Maybe one day! Until, then I will just enjoy looking at it and may find a different use for it one day.
That is all.
