This is a beautiful slag glass swan made by Sooner Glass.  These pieces come in many colors, with a variety of shapes, as they were molded and pulled.  No two will ever be the same.  This piece has so many colors within the glass that it is truly unique. Perfect for a candy dish and even looks stunning with a tea light candle.

The producer is one that we don't often hear about, it is an American company called Sooner. These iconic pieces were very popular in the 1970s. Originally sold under the “Old Hickory Glass” label, as early as 1959 they are more commonly found under the “Sooner Glass” label as well as several other names. Many of these pieces were made by the Central Glass Co. out of Spiro, Oklahoma, and both Colorado Springs, Colorado and Fort Smith, Arkansas were also known locations where this type of glass was made, either by the same people or others using the same techniques.

The Swans and the Trumpet Vases are by far the most common and easily recognized pieces. Mostly found in the earth tones (brown, honey gold and avocado) popular in the late 1960s and 1970s, other colors found include blues, greens and oranges.
