In the late 1960’s and throughout the 1970’s everybody loved a good mushroom. They had mushrooms on their walls, on their cookware and dishes, bread boxes and cookie jars, clothing, jewelry and in their home decor. Art glass mushrooms of the era came from companies like Blenko, Viking, Pilgrim, Rainbow, Scandinavian glass makers, Italian glass makers, and more. This mushroom may be from Blenko or Rainbow art glass, or it may be Scandinavian or Italian.

This mid-century glass mushroom measures 2.75″ tall and 3.5″ at widest. It weighs 1 lb.
