Manufacturer: Terry Crider, Ohio
Terry Crider started his glasswork in 1976. He is self taught. This studio glass artist has put out a limited amount of work over the past 32 years. He uses NO MOLDS and his only help has been his wife Donna who was responsible for all the finish work on the pieces. I had an email from Terry and Donna a few years ago stating that he doesn't think it would be fair to the collectors to make any of the same things again. They have decided, if they do make glass again, they are not going to make anything that they have made in the past. He made glass part time from 1988-2000. In 2005, he began again to produce a limited amount of glass. He's a great artist with VERY few early pieces out there. This toothpick holder is signed Crider 2007.
This Crider clear base glass with inclusions of pink and dark purple is in a bulbous base urn shape with a flared urn top. It also has a King Tut pattern in white glass on the outside of it. In addition, it is iridized. It's hard to imagine the amount of work that went into this beautiful, hand made toothpick holder.
This little toothpick holder stands about 1 5/8 inches high at its highest point and it is 2 1/2 inches wide at its widest point. It is a fantastic piece of American art glass! It is in perfect condition.
I am a long time member and past President (1988) of the National Toothpick Holder Collectors Club. I guarantee the authenticity of this TP. For more info on toothpick holders as a great collectible, visit the National Toothpick Holder Collectors Society web page at (www.nthcs.org)
