RARE Ruby Red INDIANA GLASS TIARA Dewdrop Candy Dish w/ Lid museum quality + BOX

Description

NOTE:
If
you wish to change the shipping method, then please speak up...BEFORE you press the button to buy it, NOT after. We avoid using USPS, but if you insist, then DEFINITELY contact us to find out our ground rules since shipping is very expensive...and any EXTRA expense caused by USPS (the "total amount" beyond our usual UPS method) will be on you. We detest 'cost effective' shipping when it comes to our masterpieces
—
just a heads-up. No unwanted surprises here.
Welcome:
Yes indeed, it
is the sought-after design and with the
ruby red
colour to boot, not the anemic "amberina." Of all the Tiara objects, this is the one to collect.
Speaking of being close to perfection, this piece is exactly that, with NO chips and cracks, as far as we can see with our naked eyes. Absolutely, the pieces you find out there are full of UGLY chips, for
Tiara Dewdrop
pieces are made of "soft glass" and easily chipped. Again, this is not made of  crystal, nor borosilicate; it is only right to mention the other side of the story to avoid the unnecessary whining of the buyer, and at the same time, to enhance the appreciation of the almost-miraculous condition of our piece.
The "museum quality" description is a well-deserved one, we agree, if we say so ourselves.
Keep in mind that the in-yer-face pictures show fingerprints and dust... There are two (2) noticeable but very tiny "stones," or unmelted-particle inclusions, and scans #4 and #5 show them. They are within the glass (not on the surface) — the reason they are called inclusions, LOL. Also, there are bubbles or "seeds" within the glass, and like inclusions, those are quite common in old glass objects (even in new glass masterpieces and handmade borosilicate art objects, for that matter). They are, however, part of making this glass piece —certainly not defects. If vintage or antique Daum and Bacarrat glass objects have them...well...you finish the sentence.
Besides, we have its
Tiara
box, which is music to collectors' ears. The box, alone, is a collector's treasure.
Don't like the price? Please make a very generous offer.
The
Tiara lidded candy box
is the only one that is being auctioned off.
More pictures? Simply ask, and we will upload them. No sweat.
Shipping with professional packaging, insurance, tracking, and signature confirmation is on us.
AS IS
. Absolutely NO returns, for shipping cost is much too expensive for that.
Even though we DO NOT accept returns, "free shipping" means that in the event that you open a claim to return the item with Ebay/Paypal's permission (OF COURSE), we will DEDUCT from your refund the total amount of UPS packing, shipping, insurance, and return charges. Plus, we will document these shipping charges via attachment of UPS invoices directly to your Ebay inbox.
To give you an idea: On a ,000.00 purchase, these fees will be approximately , which already includes the "return" expense (indeed, UPS will charge for the package to be returned to us; nothing is free when it comes to shipping, "FYI"). Actually, the cost may even be higher if the size of the box is huge...and if you open the package since this example is strictly about refusing a package being handed to you by the UPS carrier. BTW, this example is about a small box just to send out a wristwatch.
Again, be VERY aware before you press any buttons; (or more) is nothing to sneeze at. Ask questions before you buy.
Actual color may vary from pictures due to digital camera phenomenon, lighting, your computer settings, and other factors.
Thank you for stopping by.
P.S.
This masterpiece will have tamper-security stickers with unique serial numbers — "
Void If Removed
." AS IS. NO RETURNS.
The ruby Tiara is the only one for sale.
