Murano Clown Candy Dish~Cased Amber Glass, Rolled Edges Nice!

Description

PLEASE don't pay the invoice you'll get immediately from ebay.  It's only an estimate, and can be incorrect because it does not account for the final bid amount nor the item's destination.  Plainly put,  I can't ship a 0.00, five pound package from NJ to the West coast for .00, even though that's what might be on the eBay invoice.
I'll send an invoice as soon as possible, and it will begin with a Hello!  I hope you'll wait to hear from me...your patience is much appreciated!
I picked up this Murano clown candy dish at local estate sale, which was full of Murano art glass.  It's unmarked, but most piece at the sale had paper labels, so my guess is the label on this dish is long gone...This guy features a black top hat, yellow Bozo hair and a colorful collar.  His body is segmented and he sits right in the middle of the dish, creating a handle.  The dish is amber cased glass, has two pinched sides and a slightly scalloped edge.  It measures 6" high and 6 3/4" long.  The open bottom will show you the multi-colored "stem" reaching down from his head to the interior, and you'll also see a swirl of color in the glass.  I thought perhaps the one side of his collar was damaged, but upon close inspection, I can see the edge is finished and not sharp as it would be had it been damaged.  Otherwise, there are no chips, cracks or condition issues to note.  This is one of two Murano candy dishes I purchased, so take a look at my other auctions to see if you'd like to combine shipping on the pair!  Please make sure to read the entire listing before bidding.  Good luck and thanks for looking!
Please take a minute to read how I run my auctions...
I ask that you DO NOT pay
the invoice you receive nanoseconds after the auction ends.  It's an automated request from eBay.  It
DOES NOT
include insurance, delivery confirmation or the shipping discount that applies when labels are printed on-line.  If you want to pay exact shipping costs, please wait for my invoice, which is what the USPS charges me and includes all of the above.  I'll send it ASAP after an auction ends.  FREE local pick-up is always available in my auctions.
I sell mostly antique to vintage collectibles, so bidders should keep in mind that an item might have some age imperfections. I describe my items as accurately as possible, but I’m only human, and if I miss something major, please let me know before you post negative feedback.
Please remember that your bid is a binding contract to purchase.  It is your responsibility as a bidder to thoroughly read the auction listing and look at the photos---please DON'T rely only on an item's category or title for a complete description.  I do not refund for bidder's remorse.
Shipping is through the USPS and is for exact shipping costs.  I will always combine shipping costs whenever possible.
WAIT FOR YOUR INVOICE
, which will include insurance and delivery confirmation.  If you pay before you've been invoiced, I CANNOT add insurance to your purchase unless you request me to do so.
PLEASE NOTE:  THE INSURANCE I PURCHASE FOR YOU INSURES YOUR ITEM ONLY TO THE ADDRESS ON YOUR EBAY INFORMATION.  IF YOU RE-SHIP THIS ITEM THROUGH A SECOND SHIPPING COMPANY, MY INSURANCE DOES NOT COVER ANY DAMAGE OR LOSS and I am not responsible for any loss or damage.
Even though I have a
5 business day
window for shipping, that's the worst case scenario. I always ship sooner, and if I can't ship within 5 days, I'll let you know.
My auctions will indicate if an item is up for international bids, but I will not ship any item international if it’s over 3 pounds without first hearing from the bidder to make sure they're willing to pay the USPS's high shipping costs.
Please be sure to leave feedback after you receive your item---it lets me know things went off without a hitch, but
IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ANY PART OF OUR TRANSACTION, PLEASE EMAIL ME SO IT CAN BE RESOLVED BEFORE YOU LEAVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
