Flip Of the Week: Scandinavian Glass Pitcher

I had had this pitcher for a while, listed on etsy on the high side because I knew it was a sure sell.  It is quite beautiful, yet alas I have little kids.   So as much as my heart wanted to keep this piece, the practical me said, "NO!"
I found this  IITTALA THULE 50 0Z PITCHER at my fav thrift store.  I love glass pitchers.  I think it has a lot to do with growing up having had only plastic ones.  When I saw it I was intrigued by how it caught the light.  Then I picked it up and felt how light and delicate it was, I was sold.  I knew nothing of the brand or the design,  but I have been told I developed "the eye for quality."   I will now accept the compliment and give myself credit for having gained knowledge of well made items, countless hours reading and attending the auction has paid off.  The pitcher I paid $2 for and it sold for $76 shipping not included.  A great flip for me.
