This is a now-retired Mosser glass collie figurine - the color is Purple Carnival. Mosser Glass manufactured the Collies between 1971 and 2007. Purple carnival was produced in the later years. It is a dark purple glass which has been “iridized” by treating it with metallic oxides while the piece is still warm. This particular collie displays very strong iridescence.Purple carnival is nearly opaque, though you may be able to see a little of the base color through the ear tips in bri...ght light.This piece is a duplicate from my own collection. It is in excellent used condition, there are no chips, cracks or other damage. It is marked with the Mosser “M” on the left side.From a nonsmoking home. Returns accepted only if item is not as described - please ask questions before purchasing!Thanks for looking!
